As of press deadlines, law enforcement officials were still trying to identify two out of the three bodies found in Lincoln County.

Officials also were waiting for autopsy results before announcing whether the deaths were considered suspicious.

Salishan spit
Last Friday around 11 a.m., partial human remains were discovered on the west side of the Salishan spit by a beachcomber, said Sgt. Scott Lorimor of the Oregon State Police in Newport. It is unclear if the remains were male or female, and they appeared to have been in the water for an extensive period of time, he said.

Waldport

On Sunday at approximately 8:10 p.m., two women walking on a beach in Waldport

discovered a clothed body, Lorimor said.

There was no identification, and it appeared the body had been in the water less than one week, according to police.

Wow! Took me back for a minute. I used to live in Waldport. ;) Many, many years ago.

FWIW, it's not unusal for people walking along the beach to have 'sneak' waves come up and catch you off guard. They're always telling people to be very cautious walking along there.

Beautiful place.
