KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT) -- The Knox County Sheriff's Department is trying to piece together a mystery surrounding skeletal remains found Wednesday, Nov. 26, on some Midway Road property in East Knox County, deputies say.

The Sheriff's office says, "Two men who own property at 2424 Midway Road where the remains were found were out walking around 3:00 o’clock when they came upon the skeleton and called 911."

It's not clear how the remains got there, or who the deceased person was.

University of Tennessee Forensic Anthropologist Dr. Murry Marks is examining the bones.

um, my dad has been MIA for a couple months now- his name is billy joe kitts. no one has heard from or seen him in quite some time (not that unusal). but his side of the family keeps calling asking for info- thinking i would have contact with him. last i heard he was staying at the mission, i know this is a long shot but i figured it could either help you or me. for all i know dude skipped town :0)
