Boyd’s remains were found on the afternoon of Aug. 11 at Big 11 Lake, 11th and State Avenue, after a search by sheriff’s deputies and firefighters, who brought in boats. A resident had requested the search, according to authorities.
Boyd, 61, went missing the previous week from his apartment in downtown Kansas City, Kansas.
Foul play is not suspected, and the case remains under investigation by the Sheriff’s Department, Capt. David Thaxton, the spokesman, stated.
