A skull found nearly four decades ago on the banks of the Delaware River has been identified thanks to advanced forensic testing which matched a man’s remains to his daughter, who currently lives in Florida.

At the time of his disappearance, Alt and his girlfriend were suspected homicide victims in New Jersey. Her body was discovered in April 1985 in the Delaware River; Alt was last seen on Christmas Eve in 1984 by his parents. Police originally launched an investigation in June 1986, after the human skull was found by a fisherman on the banks of the Delaware River near the Morrisville boat ramp, according to officials.
The Bucks County Coroner’s Office entered the skull into the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System database, and last year, detectives retrieved the skull from the Coroner’s Office and sent it to Othram, Inc. in Texas, for forensic genealogy testing.
