Skeletal remains were discovered in Pulaski County last week, according to the Pulaski County Coroner’s Office.
The Pulaski County Coroner’s Office said the remains were found last Wednesday in a remote area of western Pulaski County in a field near Bethlehem Ridge Road.
A farmer was cutting firewood when they discovered the remains.
The coroner’s office said the remains belong to a male and the skeleton was complete, but it’s unclear how long the remains have been there.
The Pulaski County Sheriff’s Office released a statement and said the office believes the remains belong to David “DJ” Whitt, a 20-year-old Casey County man who has been missing since September.
The remains were sent off to the State Medical Examiner’s Office for a proper identification by DNA and dental work.
