BRAINERD, Minn. (AP) — Searchers have found the skeletal remains of a 21-year-old Minnesota woman who disappeared a year and a half ago, authorities said Sunday.
The remains of Erika Dalquist were found Saturday night on property owned by the grandparents of William Gene Myears, a man long suspected in the case, police said.
Dalquist's parents, Colleen and Duane Dalquist, thanked everyone involved in the search for not giving up.

"Eighteen months ago we went out with one goal in mind: to bring Erika home," Colleen Dalquist said, reading from a brief statement. "She's coming home now. It's a bittersweet day."
