Tributes were today being left near the home where the bodies of two missing girls were found hidden in a garden.

AN FBI agent said the mystery of two Oregon girls who disappeared from their apartment complex appeared to be solved after officials searching a neighbour's home identified the body of one girl and found a set of remains.

A second set of human remains has been found at the US home of a man who has said he is the prime suspect in the disappearance of two teenage girls, police said.

THE FBI uncovered human remains on Saturday in an outbuilding behind the house of Ward Weaver, the self-described No. 1 suspect in the case of two missing girls who lived across the street, officials said.
