POLSON — Lake County officials say the body of an 18-year-old man who has been missing since February was found last week in a camper in Arlee.

Sheriff Don Bell says an investigation determined Richard Warner was beaten to death sometime in mid-February and his body was concealed in the camper. It was found on June 2.

The teen had been living in the camper with two relatives. Officers interviewed them in Wallace, Idaho.

Bell says the county attorney’s office is issuing arrest warrants, at which point the suspects in the Warner’s death will be identified.
