ST. CLOUD, Minn. – Human remains found south of St. Cloud have been identified as those of a Wisconsin woman who disappeared eight years ago. The woman, Shannah Boiteau, 23 at the time, was from Chippewa Falls – 160 miles away. A witness at the time told police of seeing Boiteau running from a car. That was in June 2016 on Stearns County Road 74 just off the Interstate 94 exit to St. Cloud and Kimball. The car was driven by Boiteau’s boyfriend, investigators said. There was never an arrest. The bones were found three days ago by a property owner. It has taken since then for the regional medical examiner to confirm the identity. Investigators have been tight-lipped about the case, It is believed, however, that Boiteau may have been fleeing Wisconsin to avoid a probation violation arrest.
