TEMPLE - After finding a human skull last Sunday, investigators are still looking for the rest of the remains.

... at the 3100 block of Lowes Drive.

... The skull, which police believe to be that of an adult, has been sent to the Southwest Institute of Forensic Science in Dallas for tests, and identification.

Authorities say it didn't have any obvious signs of trauma, but was badly decomposed, suggesting it may have been outside for quite sometime.

Details of Disappearance

Sullivan was last seen leaving his house in the 1100 block of south Third Street in Temple, Texas on April 2, 2009. He has never been heard from again. Sullivan lived with a roommate at the time of his disappearance. It's uncharacteristic of him to leave without warning; whenever he had to go out of town, he told friends so they could keep an eye on his house. His friends stated he never went anywhere without his Bible, but it was left behind at his home.

Sullivan is missing under suspicious circumstances and foul play is suspected in his case. His disappearance remains unsolved.
 
Any info on how his skull ended up in the middle of the road?

It was put there but his remains are not close. Police have done a thorough search of the area. It was found on the roadway - behind it is bush. I was the reporter that did all the stories when Dan went missing.

Do you have a link handy to the stories? I would love to read about the case from the start.

Sorry it took so long to get back here. They are all in the Temple Daily Telegram, but that is one of those papers that you can only see the first couple of lines without paying for the rest of the story.

PM me if you like for my byline :) I am more than happy to answer anything here though.

You can also check the TV stations: KCEN, News 25 and News 10 in Waco will have it too. It was a very personal case to me. His sister and mother were just the most adorable people ever - I still want to look for him, just to give them some peace KWIM?
