Jan. 28 Authorities used to DNA samples to identify the skeletal remains of a missing man who was found early last month by a county crew cleaning out a storm drain in south Sacramento.
The remains of Jack Larson, 60, were found in the storm drain along the 5300 block of Gordon Drive near Stockton Boulevard, according to the Sacramento County Coroner’s Office, which listed Larson’s initial classification of his death as “undetermined.”
