Human Skeletal Remains Found in Upstate NY
September 28, 2009
A fisherman in Cattaraugus County, NY, made a gruesome discovery Saturday afternoon when he stumbled upon human skeletal remains along the edge of the Allegheny Reservoir.
According to a source close to the investigation, a skull and miscellaneous bones were recovered from the scene. No word yet on who they belong to; however investigators have said that they appear to have been there for "quite some time."
No missing persons have been reported in Cattaraugus County, but the remains are located roughly 20 miles from the home of Corrie Anderson, a mother of three from Ashville who went missing in October 2008.
Authorities say it could take several days for an identification to be made. Forensic specialists from Erie, Pennsylvania are expected to assist in that process.
