Authorities are working to identify one of those bodies as well as a third body found at a house in neighboring Richland County.

A woman’s report that she was being held captive at a home in Ashland led to the arrest of Shawn Grate, a murder confession and the discovery of the remains of the three other people.

Grate, 40, remains jailed on an abduction charge. It was not immediately clear if the homeless man has an attorney.
