The human remains found in a search for a missing Wisconsin couple are those of the husband, the Dane County medical examiner said on Monday.

Authorities said the remains found Thursday evening in the town of Cottage Grove are those of Bart Halderson, 50, of Windsor. The cause of death was listed as “homicidal violence, including gunshot wounds”.

The Dane County District Attorney’s Office said it plans to indict Chandler Halderson, the couple’s 23-year-old son, for his father’s death, the Wisconsin State Journal reported.

Chandler Halderson reported Bart and Krista Halderson missing on Wednesday and was arrested Thursday for providing false information to investigators. The son told police his parents planned to spend the July 4 weekend at their cabin in White Lake, Langlade County, with an unknown couple, but never returned.
