Skeletal remains were found in a basement in a Sac City home Monday. Police officials believe it to be  the previous home owner, Mark Koster whom went missing in 2009. The neighbor of Koster reported that he had left a note on his door saying he was going to Florida and would be back in the Spring. Koster told his neighbor to look after the property while he was away. Sac City’s police are led to believe that Koster’s cause of death was suicide. The remains that were found were sent to the Iowa State Medical Examiner for an autopsy. Results will be back in a couple of days.

If Koster was missing since 2009 why wouldn’t have the police or the neighbor have checked the house sooner? It’s kind of weird to me that he had been in his basement for quite sometime and no one had noticed, or looked  to see what was going on inside the house. I have family that lives in Sac City I’m going to ask them about this. I just think it’s so bizarre that no one discovered this man earlier.
