MONTE VISTA — The Rio Grande County sheriff says a bone fragment found in Monte Vista is probably from an animal and not from a woman who disappeared more than six years ago.
Authorities say the 3-inch fragment was found outside a home that was once owned by a woman whose son lived with the missing woman, 19-year-old Danice Day.
Sheriff Brian Norton said Thursday that an examination of the bone by a forensics laboratory in El Paso County indicates it probably isn’t human. The bone was found in a cavity beneath a trap door in the floor of a shed.
