More bones were found Wednesday at the Illinois River near Glasford.

Peoria County Sheriff Brian Asbell said he believes the newly discovered remains are related to the human bones found in the same area in late August. DNA testing is pending.

The Peoria County Sheriff's Office and Peoria Fire Department Dive Team are expanding underwater searches of the area as river levels recede.
