Tip leads police to search woods for missing man. Officers found a body... and an ID
Horry County police confirmed an identification found near a man’s remains in woods near Aynor belonged to a man reported missing more than a year ago.
Acting on a tip, Horry County officers began searching the woods near Horse Pen Bay Road Wednesday morning for Randy Davis, who was reported missing in January 2016. While combing the area, police discovered human remains around 2:30 p.m., according to Krystal Dotson, spokeswoman for the Horry County Police Department.
“In close proximity (to the body) was an identification card belonging to missing person Randy Davis,” Dotson said. “While the preliminary investigation leads us to the conclusion that the remains belong to Mr. Davis, forensic analysis is necessary to confirm the identity. We will not provide such confirmation until these results are received.”
