LITTLE ROCK, AR – A state parks official confirmed on Thursday that remains found at Petit Jean State Park are missing Little Rock businessman John Glasgow.

The remains were found Wednesday by two hikers one-third of a mile off the nearest hiking trail in the Red Bluff area. Officials say the location is so remote and rugged that hikers are encouraged not to go there.

The family of John Glasgow broke their silence at a press conference today in downtown Little Rock. John’s brother Roger Glasgow addressed the media. John’s wife Melinda was also present.

A state parks official says there’s no word on how long it will take to confirm Glasgow’s cause of death.
