Over the weekend, three cases of human remains were found in Milwaukee, raising concerns about the location of a 19-year-old woman who has gone missing.
According to Milwaukee police, unidentified remains were found in the vicinity of the 3000 block of West Galena Street on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
Police and other local law enforcement organizations are working together to undertake an investigation in that region.
No other information was disclosed, including if the remains belonged to a woman.
Area where remains were found
The bones were discovered around 2.5 miles west of the last known location of 19-year-old Sade Carleena Robinson, who was deemed a “critically missing person.”
Robinson was last observed near 1800 N. Commerce Street on April 1.
She was last seen wearing a black coat, a white hooded sweatshirt, blue trousers, and white sneakers. She is described as 5 feet tall, 135 pounds, with black hair, and brown eyes. Information on her disappearance’s circumstances was not disclosed by the police.
Last week, in nearby Cudahy, about 10 miles southeast of the Galena site, police responded to a complaint of a claim that a severed limb had been recovered near Lake Michigan in Warnimont Park.
According to a statement, the Milwaukee County Sheriff’s Office was called and is looking into the discovery as a possible homicide.
After obtaining a search warrant, Milwaukee sheriff’s deputies met at a home on the south side of the city on Thursday. A “person of interest” was taken into custody so they could question them. It’s unclear if the human remains found there are related to the Galena remains.
