TRENTON, MI -- Police have identified human remains that were found in a Trenton home in 2020, ClickonDetroit reported.

The human remains were found July 6, 2020, in a fire pit outside a home in the 5500 block of Wilson St. Police used the DNA from a family member to identify the remains, but have not yet released the identity to the public.
