Walsh County Sheriff Lauren Wild says a body was found Saturday in the Forest River about a mile west of Minto. The sheriff says authorities are not 100 percent sure, but they are confident the body is that of Miller.
Wild says authorities did not find any identification, but will check dental records to confirm the identity.
