Authorities still aren't sure what caused the death of a Brainerd man who'd been missing for almost two and a half years. Brainerd police chief Korky McQuiston says a provisional report from the Ramsey County Medical Examiner's office listed the cause and manner of death for Mark Wellesant as undetermined. Wellesants remains were found on March 25th near Highway 371 in Brainerd on private land near the Mississippi River. He'd been missing since October 26th 2014 and was last seen about two miles from where his remains were found. McQuiston says they haven't received a final autopsy on the case and it's still under investigation but based on the circumstances McQuiston does not anticipate a change in the cause of death.
