VIDEO: A Virginia family gets closure 45 years later after their loved ones' remains have been identified and returned following the remains being found in the Kentucky River.
It was a normal training exercise for the Lexington Fire Department on October 22, 2016. Several dive teams spent the day removing vehicles from the Kentucky River off Old Tates Creek Road near Valley View Ferry. After crews were all packed up, one firefighter noticed something sticking out of the water. "One of my guys comes over and says 'hey what is this?' And I walk over to the edge of the water and there's a human bone laying there," District Chief Christopher Warren recalls with the Lexington Fire Department Station 2.
Unknowingly, finding this bone would jump-start an eight-year investigation for Warren.
