Police identified a 1988 river skull as Gerald Durocher's using DNA, reigniting a decades-old mystery.

Police in Peterborough, Ontario, have identified a skull found in the Otonabee River in 1988 as belonging to Gerald Durocher, 38, using advanced DNA technology. Durocher's skull and vertebrae were discovered by divers, but his body was never found. The case remained unsolved for decades until DNA testing by a Texas lab helped confirm his identity. Police are now investigating his life and death and are offering a $5,000 reward for information that could lead to an arrest.
