Dog uncovers hill tragedy in Idaho field
Idaho Falls June 23 A farmer John Sanders near McCoy Creek seventy six miles away assisted Sheriff Criddle by bringing a bone from a left leg of a man to the sheriff. A forest ranger initially treated it as bear bone then it was linked to a human skeleton. Authorities believe the person may have died or been killed last winter. The dog found the bone with flesh on it and near the site are horse bones suggesting the man may have been thrown from a horse and killed. An examination of the skeleton should confirm this theory.
