Authorities have identified the skeletal remains of a Yolo County man who was missing for more than a year and was found earlier this month in a rural area in southwest Sacramento County.
Alejandro Reyes Cisneros, 40, was found along the 12000 block of River Road in the town of Courtland, the Sacramento County Coroner’s Office confirmed.
Reclamation district employees discovered Cisneros’ skeletal remains about 11 a.m. Oct. 9 in an area that’s mostly agricultural land just east of the Sacramento River and a few miles west of Interstate 5, according to the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office.
Cisneros was last seen in the early hours of June 26, 2024, when he left his West Sacramento home with unknown people in a newer-model black pickup, according to a Jan. 7 Facebook post from the West Sacramento Police Department.
The Police Department at the time considered Cisneros an at-risk missing person and asked the public to help find him. Police said Cisneros had not contacted his family since his disappearance and was without needed medication.
The Coroner’s Office listed Cisneros’s death as a homicide, but the Police Department and the Sheriff’s Office have not released any details about the suspected circumstances that led to Cisneros’ death.
