A diving team in North Carolina recently discovered the remains of a woman who went missing more than a year ago, authorities said.
The woman, 33-year-old mother Dana Leigh Mustian, disappeared in November 2023 from Warrenton, North Carolina, near the Virginia border, the Warren County Sheriff's Office said in a statement. Mustian was last seen Nov. 30 at her home, according to the sheriff's office and CBS News affiliate WNCN.
Divers found possible human remains while searching Thursday in Vance County, less than 20 miles west of Warrenton, the sheriff said, noting the State Bureau of Investigations was also involved in the operation. The North Carolina Medical Examiner's Office later confirmed Mustian's identity. An investigation into her disappearance and death is ongoing, the sheriff added.
