CARBONDALE, Kan. (AP) Law officers have ended a search in northeast Kansas where human remains were found.
The Osage County Sheriff’s office said in a news release Tuesday that numerous bones and bone fragments were found near Carbondale, about 15 miles south of Topeka.
The Lawrence Journal-World reports the bones and fragments were sent to a morgue in Kansas City, Kan., to determine if they were from humans or animals.
The sheriff’s office says DNA testing on the remains could take several months.
The search began when a mushroom hunter found human remains Saturday on her property. Osage County Sheriff Laurie Dunn has not discussed what was found.
