The Alameda County coroner's bureau is working to identify the body of a man that washed ashore at the Berkeley Marina this morning, a police sergeant said. 

At approximately 7:45 a.m., police received a report of a body in the water against the rocks at the marina's southernmost point, Berkeley police Sgt. David White said. 

Police and firefighters responded, and fire personnel confirmed the man was deceased. The coroner's bureau took custody of the body, which White said did not show any obvious signs of trauma. 

The man's identity has not yet been determined.
