Human remains were discovered in a wooded area in Cumru Township, in Berks County, earlier this week. And now, the U.S. Marshal’s Service believes, the remains may be tied to a case involving a 27-year-old Reading man who disappeared last year after being sought on robbery and harassment charge s. According to police, the remains were discovered on Sunday, Dec. 28, 2025, when officers were alerted to a possible body being found in a wooded area near Lakeview Drive in the Flying Hills Community by an individual who was out walking their dog. Officials said investigators believe the remains that were discovered were human, but the individual’s gender and identity were not immediately known. The individual’s body was found, officials said, about 20 yards off the golf cart path that leads to the 18th green between Doral and Lakewood drives in Flying Hills. In a social media post on Monday, the U.S. Marshal’s Service said that, while the remains have not been officially identified, the body could be tied to the case of Travelle Martin, 27, of Reading. Human remains have been recovered in the Flying Hills Community of Cumru Twp, Berks County. This area is consistent with Travelle Martin's last known location when he fled from police in January 2024. Further tests are being conducted to confirm the identity of the remains. pic.twitter.com/ohjjKa8PHL— U.S. Marshals Service Philadelphia (@USMS_Philly) December 29, 2025 Martin has been sought by law enforcement officials after, his family has claimed, he went missing after being charged with robbery and harassment offenses last year.
