JOLIET, Ill. (AP) — Authorities say DNA tests show a headless, armless skeleton found along the Des Plaines River last week was from an unidentified male.
Speculation had swirled about whether the badly decomposed body was one of two women whose disappearances have drawn national media attention.
Illinois State Police said in a statement Wednesday that an investigation to identify the remains is under way.
The Will County coroner has said the person was dead for several months or more. Results of an autopsy last week were inconclusive, and DNA tests were conducted.
The location of the remains in Will County prompted speculation they were related to the high-profile missing persons cases of Stacy Peterson or Lisa Stebic.
