Multiple Human Remains Found in St. Louis Area Under Homicide Investigation

Human remains were discovered by city workers in a vacant lot on the 5600 block of Labadie Avenue in St. Louis' Wells-Goodfellow neighborhood, prompting a homicide investigation. The Medical Examiner's Office confirmed the remains were human and is assisting with identification and determining the cause of death. Police have requested public assistance and provided tip lines for information related to the case. This discovery is separate from the earlier finding of human remains in the Columbia Bottom Conservation Area, which were identified as Steven Reed, a man reported missing last month. Authorities have not yet released additional details about the Labadie Avenue victim. The investigation remains active and ongoing as police continue to seek information from the community.
