KLAMATH FALLS, Ore. (AP) — Natural gas pipeline workers in southern Oregon have found a skull with a bullet hole that may be the remains of a California man missing since 2008.
The Herald and News in Klamath Falls reports that Ruby Pipeline workers found the skull last week.
Lake County Deputy Sheriff Chuck Pore said DNA analysis will be needed to positively identify the remains. He said the family of the missing man was notified and asked to provide a sample for analysis.
The victim’s name was not released, but Pore said he was from the San Francisco Bay area and abandoned his vehicle west of Renner Lake in southern Lake County in August 2008. Authorities found a suicide note with the vehicle.
