CHICAGO (CBS) -- The DuPage County Sheriff's Office is requesting the public's help in identifying the human remains that were found in April 2010 at the Herrick Lake Forest Preserve in unincorporated Wheaton.

This past winter, investigators sent the remains that were found to the FACES Labs at Louisiana State University for a digital facial reconstruction.

The photo above shows that remains are of a male, possibly of a Hispanic or Native American, between the age 45 and 65 years old, with a distinctive dental pattern.

The victim was possibly wearing an extra-large grey Hanes sweat shirt with a logo on the left front saying "Little Nicky."

Anybody with information should call the DuPage County Sheriff's Office Criminal Investigations at 630-407-2400.
