PLATTSMOUTH, Neb. (AP) — Authorities say human remains found in a park earlier this month were those of a Plattsmouth man who disappeared last year.

Plattsmouth police and the Nebraska State Patrol confirmed Monday that the remains were 29-year-old Dalton Berens of Plattsmouth.

Berens was reported missing in February 2020. His remains were found last week in a wooded area of Ryhlander Park in Plattsmouth close to where he lived.

The cause of his death and the circumstances leading to his disappearance are still under investigation.
