A human head and hand found in a freezer early this year have been identified as belonging to a 16-year-old Colorado girl who disappeared in 2005, authorities said.

The human remains discovered in the freezer of a Colorado home in January have been identified as belonging to a 16-year-old girl last seen in 2005, according to local authorities.

Body parts found in a freezer earlier this year after a Colorado home was sold have been identified as those of the 16-year-old daughter of the home’s previous owner, authorities said Friday.

When a new Colorado homeowner gave away an appliance that had been left behind by the previous owner, the person picking it up made a grisly discovery in the freezer.

Human remains found in a Colorado freezer have been identified as Amanda Overstreet. She was 16 when last seen alive in the Houston area in 2005.

The Mesa County Sheriff's Office said they responded nine months ago on Jan. 12 to a call about a "suspicious incident."
