Human remains found in search for missing boy

Sheriff Rocky Watson said the remains were found in western Montana would be sent to an FBI laboratory for DNA analysis. He did not say whether the remains were believed to be those of Dylan Groene (the missing boy), and declined to answer questions. Officials said previously that there was little hope that Dylan was still alive.

Dylan’s eight-year-old sister, Shasta, was found Saturday with Joseph Edward Duncan III, more than six weeks after the children disappeared from the home where their mother, her boyfriend and an older brother were bludgeoned to death.
