ST. TAMMANY PARISH, La. — The St. Tammany Parish Coroner’s Office needs your help identifying a man whose remains were recovered over 40 years ago.
On October 11th, 1984, hunters discovered a partial human skeleton of an unknown man along the banks of the West Pearl River near Interstate 59.
With the use of sophisticated technology, an artist’s rendering was made from the remains to reveal what the unidentified man could look like.
The image shows several unique facial features that investigators hope may lead to his identification.
The St. Tammany Coroner says LSU Faces Laboratory Anthropologists found characteristics of both Caucasian and African American ancestry.
Forensics determined the remains to be those of an 18 to 40-year-old man at the time of death.
Anyone with information that could help the coroner potentially identify his person should contact Investigator Chris Knoblauch by phone at 985-781-1150 or by email at cknoblauch@stpcoroner.org.
