BILLINGS — A body found in a shallow grave on private land in central Montana may be that of a Billings man who has been missing since late June and is assumed to be the victim of a homicide.
Billings police say a landowner found the shallow grave on Sunday near Roundup. Investigators uncovered a badly decomposed body. An autopsy is planned.
Law enforcement’s search for 33-year-old Rory Wanner has been centered around Roundup, which is about 50 miles north of Billings.
Wanner was last seen on June 28. His vehicle was found abandoned in a residential area of Billings on July 1. A week later, police said they were investigating his disappearance as a possible homicide and had identified a person of interest.
