Missing

named
CORPUS CHRIST1 (AP) —
DNA tests have identified partial re
mains that washed up on Gulf beach
es as two of three Austin men de
clared missing in September when
they failed to return from a fishing
trip.
DNA tests have linked the lower
part of a right leg that washed up on
Mustang Island Sept. 18 and a partial
skeleton that washed up at the Padre
Island National Seashore Sept. 26 as
Danny Gonzales, 35, and Larry Car
denas, 47, the Corpus Christi Caller-
Times reported Sunday.
The third man, Modesto Robles
Jr., 43, is still missing.
Texas Rangers spent Friday noti
fying the men’s families of the iden
tifications, which were made by com
paring DNA from the bones with
samples from the men’s parents.
Constable Robert Sherwood told
the newspaper that authorities were
keeping an eye on Gulf Coast beach
es should any more remains or debris
from the men’s boat wash ashore.
• “It’s been two months and we
haven’t found anything else,” Sher
wood said. “It’s strange that we’ve
not found any parts of the boat. But t
the water’s pretty unforgiving.”
Authorities stopped looking for
the men four days after the men set to
sea Sept. 8 for a deep-sea fishing trip
to Matagorda Bay.
Coast Guard crews covered
35,000 miles and found no traces of
the men or their 26-foot Wellcraft
boat except for two coolers, one with
a shoe tied to it.

Forty-one Bosnians laid to rest
NOVOSEOCI, Bosnia-Herzegov-
ina (AP) — Forty-one Muslims came
home Sunday to this hamlet now set
tled by Serbs, and they were buried by
displaced and dispersed families who
had spent eight years praying they
might still be alive.
It was yet another Bosnian drama,
a vignette of life in a patchwork coun
try that cannot find peace five years af
ter the Dayton accords ended its war.
Novoseoci died on Sept. 22, 1992,
when Serb units assembled the small
farming population in front of the
mosque. Forty-five males were
marched away. Damir Ocuz, at 14,

— Amor Masovic
Head of the Bosnian
missing persons agency
was the youngest. Edhem Karie was
85. Everyone else fled.
Until September of this year, sur
vivors could only guess that their
worst fears were true. Eventually, a dy
ing Serb with a bad conscience toldanj
thorities what many people had sus
pected. Crews went to work at fvaij;
Polje, three miles from here.
“We had to move tons of garbag
and also 15-ton chunks of the mosi
the Serbs destroyed before we uncov
ered the mass grave,” said Amoj
Masovic, head of the Bosnian missing
persons agency. “First we located a
thigh bone. Then, all the rest.”
Four of the missing were not found
Masovic said Serbs had smashed
the bodies together with a bulldozer,
creating a nightmare puzzle for foren
sic experts.
