A murder charge is filed against a man from the Page County town of College Springs after a mysterious death last year. The Ringgold County Sheriff’s Office says it arrested Edward Eugene Gray, Jr., on Tuesday in connection with skeletal remains found last December.

Local hunters discovered the body along a country road in this south central Iowa county. Gray was charged with first-degree murder and is being held on a $750,000 cash only bond. According to a press release, the Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation and the sheriff’s office are both continuing to investigate the incident. Sheriff Mike Sobotka was not immediately available for comment.
