BIG ARM — A body found in a wooded area near Walking Horse Lane on Oct. 22 has been identified as Lawrence Buston, 57, from Kalispell. Cause of death was suicide according to Lieutenant Mike Sargeant, head of detectives with the Lake County Sheriff’s Department.
Buston’s mother lives in the Big Arm area. She contacted Tribal Law and Order to report Buston, a tribal member, missing in August of 2005.
Sargeant said, “Our guess is that on the day he (Buston) went missing, he came down to see his mom.” |
