The Manitowoc County Sheriff’s Office reports that skeleton remains were found in Two Rivers on Saturday, September 7, and there is a noticeable police presence in the vicinity. Authorities said the bone remains were discovered at Girl Scout Camp Manitou-Two Rivers on a private property.
It is still unclear whether the remains are connected to the 3-year-old Elijah Vue who vanished in February, despite reports from several media outlets to the contrary.
The last persons to saw Elijah alive, his mother Katrina Baur and her boyfriend Jesse Vang, are accused of child neglect in connection with Elijah’s abduction. Both women have denied knowing where Elijah is. Elijah must have sneaked out of the house when he was sleeping, Vang informed the police.
Despite two searches by investigators, the camp’s enormous size prevented them from finding the body, which was discovered on Saturday in a “remote area.”
A diaper, a few more bones, and a skull that a physician verified as human were found by the searchers.
Though identification of the remains is still pending, the working theory seems to be that Elijah Vue is the owner.
