3 bodies recovered in remote California area linked to missing persons report

LOS ANGELES — Three sets of human remains discovered in a remote area near Barstow last month are believed to be linked to a missing persons report filed in July, according to the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department.

Authorities identified one of the victims as Enrique Saltos Gallegos, a 38-year-old resident of Nuevo in Riverside County who was reported missing in July, according to a sheriff's department news release.

While authorities haven't positively identified the other two victims, investigators "believe the other two victims are possibly two other people who were reported missing with Gallegos," the department said.
