Human Remains Found in Swiss Village After Glacier Collapse
A village in the Swiss Alps was hit by a glacier collapse, burying it in ice, mud, and rock.
Search teams looking through the debris have found human remains.
Police are trying to figure out who the remains belong to.
They haven't said if it is the 64-year-old man who went missing.
The villagers were moved out of their homes earlier because the mountain was unstable.
Human remains have been discovered in a Swiss Alpine village.
The village was buried last month after a glacier collapsed.
