RENO — Douglas County authorities say human remains found in a ravine are believed to be those of a woman who went missing last month.
Deputies say 51-year-old Randi MacLean disappeared on Aug. 23 and was reported missing by her husband three days later.
Authorities had responded Sunday to a report of an abandoned white pickup, which was later identified as MacLean’s vehicle.
Search and rescue crews combed through the area for five hours and located the remains of a woman in a steep ravine.
An autopsy will be conducted to determine the cause of death.
