Searchers find human remains near Berthoud Falls
Search teams on the hunt for a Jefferson County man missing since January have found human remains in a backcountry area he was known to frequent.
Authorities say the discovery was made Sunday in the Berthoud Falls area near the Urad Mine in central Colorado. Clear Creek County Undersheriff Bruce Snelling says the remains were of an unidentified male.
About 60 rescuers had been looking for signs of 42-year-old Jeremy Rich, who was last seen leaving work on Jan. 22.
A previous search for Rich in June was unsuccessful.
The Clear Creek County coroner is working to identify the remains.
