A 17-year- old boy has been missing for almost two weeks. The family of Adam Falconer believes he was murdered. So with a body found in Clark County this weekend, his family is looking for answers.

The call came in around 11 a.m. Saturday morning. The Sheriff says a bicyclist smelled something very unusual on Badger Road, just off Highway K in Unity. A deputy check out the scene and found a body in a wooded area.

Falconer was last seen July 15 in Clark County. His family believes he was shot to death.

The sheriff says it's too early to identify to tell if this is Falconer. But he did say Falconer is the only person missing in Clark County.

Falconer's family told Newschannel 7 they are making funeral arrangements. The body will go to Ramsey Medical Center for an autopsy.

The family says once they can bury Adam, the healing process will begin. They say it will take a long time and will be very difficult. They just want closure.

It still is unclear what exactly happened the morning Falconer disappeared.
