(Cougar, WA) -- Investigators say human remains found near Lake Merrill in 2021 are those of Anthony Matthew Croy, who disappeared from the Portland area in 1995. Tree planters discovered a skull, later determined to have two bullet holes, and a subsequent search turned up a femur. DNA work by Bode Technology and Othram linked the remains to Croy through a sibling match. The Cowlitz County Sheriff's Office says the homicide investigation is ongoing and is seeking tips from the public.
