The body found in the Columbia River a year ago at Longview, Washington has been identified as a 57-year-old Kansas man, Charles Farley of Hiawatha.
The Cowlitz County coroner says the identification was made after Farley’s DNA profile was plugged into a national database.
Farley was reported missing in April of last year in Kansas. His pickup truck was found in June 2011 at a truck stop at Halsey, Ore. The body was found Dec. 15, 2011, at a bulk terminal on the river.
The death remains under investigation.
