Anthropologists believe they have found human remains in an SUV that was submerged in the Ohio River for nearly 20 years before it was discovered last week, the Indiana State Police announced Tuesday. The 1997 Nissan Pathfinder is at the center of a missing person investigation for a mother and her two children that began in 2002.
Anthropologists with the University of Indianapolis and Indiana State Police Investigators searched the vehicle and found remains that they believe to be a human bone, state police said in a statement. The bone will now be sent to a lab for testing to confirm its origin.
The Delhi Township Police Department began investigating the disappearance of 26-year-old Stephanie Van Nguyen and her two young children — 3-year-old John and 4-year-old Kristina — in April 2002, police said.
