Conley's car was found just days after State Police had pinged his cellphone in the area of Lewiston/Auburn on Christmas eve, WMTW reports. Officials found the car in the river on January 3rd of this year with a smashed out window and no one inside.

The body has been taken to an area funeral home where the State Medical Examiner will attempt a positive identification on the remains. We will keep this story updated as more information becomes available.
