Deputies are also seeking information on human remains found near Rock Hill on Katrina Falls Road in August. In that case, investigators did not find a skull and only a limited number of bones; however, deputies believe these belong to a white homeless man who disappeared around April 2008.

Deputies are also seeking information on human remains found near Rock Hill on Katrina Falls Road in August. In that case, investigators did not find a skull and only a limited number of bones; however, deputies believe these belong to a white homeless man who disappeared around April 2008. The man used to push a shopping cart filled with cans. An abandoned shopping cart was found near the bones and men's clothing was found, Hawker said. The problem in that case is that deputies haven't found anybody who knew the name of the missing homeless man.
