Houston Human Remains Still Unknown

HOUSTON, Miss.(WCBI)–Still no word on the identity of human remains discovered just off Okolona Cutoff Street in Houston a few days ago.

The search initially began again Tuesday, after a local resident said her dog drug up a human skull.

Multiple agencies returned to the area, where they found the rest of what appears to be a human body.

Chief Deputy James Myers says he believes the body is that of Willie Harries, Houston Police Chief Billy Voyles says results are not back from the crime lab yet.

The 72-year-old walked away from his home in August and has not been seen since.

Myers says clothing that matches that of Harries was also recovered.
