OWENSVILLE (AP) - Authorities in east-central Missouri's Gasconade County are investigating as a homicide the death of a person whose body has been found in a pond.
The Gasconade County Sheriff's Office said on its Facebook page the investigation of a missing-person report Tuesday led them to the pond.
Divers found human remains and what the sheriff's department called "evidence of an apparent homicide."
The Facebook posting said the remains haven't been identified, and authorities haven't specified whether the remains are those of the person who had been reported missing.
Authorities are looking for a 60-year-old St. Louis-area man as a "person of interest" in the case.
