Ohio high school cross-country runner finds skeletal remains near school

On October 1, a student on La Salle High School’s cross-country team ventured into the woods near the school and reported that he thought he found a human still wearing pants and a hoodie.

The assistant principal of the Cincinnati-area high school told the 911 dispatcher that there was a phone in the skeleton’s pocket and what looks to be decaying hair on the skull.
