Human bones recently found in Napa County were positively identified as two missing Santa Rosa brothers, who investigators believe were killed when they became trapped in the Butts Fire that ravaged Pope Valley in 2014.

The brothers — Mario and Florentino Avendano — were first reported missing by their family members in January 2015, seven months after the Butts Fire erupted northwest of Lake Berryessa.

It took the family 7 months to report that they were missing? What?

7 months their family decided to report them missing? Something is troubling to me, if a family member is missing I would call the police after 12 hours.
