Santa Fe police said Friday morning that they may have a lead in a missing person case from more than 60 years ago.
Police spokeswoman Celina Westervelt said officers have been investigating a home in the 500 block of Oñate Street in connection with the disappearance of Inez Garcia. Westervelt said Garcia disappeared in 1952 following an argument with her husband.

A mother of four, she has not been seen since 1952, according to police.
Westervelt said police started excavating at the home on Tuesday, and they uncovered bone fragments. Westervelt said they could belong to Garcia, but investigators won’t be sure until a crime lab in Texas analyzes them. That could take up to two months.
Garcia’s husband has since died. Westervelt didn’t have the man’s name immediately available.
