The human remains found under I-10 in Slidell are those of a Pearl River man missing more than a year.

"Utilizing DNA technology, St. Tammany Parish Coroner Dr. Charles Preston has positively identified the human remains found under an I-10 overpass earlier this week as Tony Bennett," a news release states.

He was 40 years old when he disappeared in December 2017.
