Anne Arundel County police believe human remains found along the shoreline near Holly Drive and Chesapeake Drive may belong to a woman who went missing sometime this year.
On Wednesday October 18, neighbors say a woman was walking her dog when she saw a dismembered arm. After a search of the area, police found more skeletal remains.
The remains were transported to the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner for a post mortem examination.

It is believed the remains are that of someone who went missing within the past year.
Officials continue to examine the remains in an attempt to identify the woman and learn the manner of death.
