On Sunday (Oct 2) a Bismarck man found what he thinks could be a human jaw bone in the Missouri River.

According to reports, the man was walking through the river near the boat launch on River Road and stepped on a sharp object. When he took it out of the water, he thought it would be best to notify officials.
