Hopefully the success of this search will bring closure to the family; however, the woman's death is very regrettable.

SEBASTIAN — Police found female skeletal remains just off Main Street Saturday, but can’t say if they are a 50-year-old Sebastian woman who was last seen Sept. 7, Sebastian Police Department spokesman Officer Steve Marcinik said.

“We’re optimistic,” he said. “But there has to be forensic identification to say who the person is.”

Police and volunteers were searching the area for signs of Marcia Hulihan, who has been missing for five months.

Corpse found in canal near home of missing Sebastian woman

SEBASTIAN — An alert searcher Saturday chopped through heavy vegetation to find a corpse in a small canal within one-tenth of a mile from the home of a woman reported missing five months ago, police said.

Authorities won’t know for a couple of weeks whether the body found was 50-year-old Marcia Hulihan, Sebastian police spokesman Steve Marcinik said. But there have been no other leads for Hulihan’s whereabouts since her Sept. 7 disappearance.

The wooden area is north of Hulihan’s home at the Pelican Isles apartment complex. The area, which stretches from the complex to Main Street, features several dirt trails wide enough for vehicles to fit through.
