PURCELL — A body found near Purcell may be that of a man who disappeared 13 months ago.

The remains found near a pond last week by fishermen will be tested to determine if they are that of Efrain Aquino.

Authorities say Aquino disappeared in August 2007 while at a party about one-half mile from where the remains were found.

A belt and buckle believed to belong to Aquino were found with the remains.

McClain County deputies searched the area for Aquino when he disappeared but did not find a body.

Foul play is not suspected in the case.
