LUCASVILLE, Ohio — New details have been released in the discovery of human remains in Lucasville.
According to the Scioto County Sheriff’s Office, “after a preliminary review of the remains, the biological profile suggests a white female between the ages of 30-50 being of average height, no upper teeth, no lower teeth (recently removed). This female has an abnormal growth on the right side of her scapula which may have caused it to project from the back differently than the left scapula, being from a birth defect. This may or may not have been visible. In addition, two right ribs are fused along most of the length of the ribs. The review suggests that the remains are less than two years old.”
On Monday, dispatchers received a call from a hunter shortly after 10:30 a.m. regarding the grisly discovery.
Sheriff David Thoroughman said deputies, detectives, the county coroner’s office, and other outside agencies are still working to determine the person’s identity.
Several missing person cases throughout the Scioto Valley remain unsolved.
Officials say the remains were transported to Erie for further investigation, including dental and DNA testing.
