Authorities search yard for 6 bodies

The remains of at least two people were found in a rural Missouri yard, where the bodies of as many as six people might have been dumped, sheriff's officials said Saturday.

Officials planned to resume the search early Sunday. Bone fragments from two sets of remains were found Friday on the three-acre wooded property northeast of Drexel in western Missouri, Cass County Sheriff's Cpl. Kevin Tieman said.

"They have not started digging at all so far," he said. "What's on the surface is what they have found so far."

The deaths appeared to be drug-related and were not "random acts," Tieman said. He estimated the deaths occurred over five years and said the most recent remains were several months old.

The remains did not appear to be related to any ongoing investigations, he said. Deputies working an unrelated theft case received a tip about the remains, Tieman said.
