HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. (AP) - Authorities say they have identified the remains of a South Florida woman who disappeared eight years ago.

The Hallandale Police Department said Thursday in a statement that remains found last week in Miami Gardens were those of 40-year-old Lynda Meier.

Meier went missing in 2010 after she failed to pick up her mother for a doctor’s appointment.
