BARRYTOWN, Ala. – The skeletal remains found in a trash pile in Barrytown may belong to a Thomasville man who has been missing for more than five years.

Choctaw County Sheriff James Lovett said Tuesday the remains found in early Dec. could be those of Christopher Randolph Hill.

Hill was last seen on Aug 16, 2003. Lovett said Hill and another man were suspects in a burglary at an oil company storage building.

Lovett said the state Department of Forensic Sciences in Mobile will make the final determination.
