Washoe County sheriff's deputies said they found the grave Thursday after receiving information from people familiar with the case.

Deputies said the case involves a male reported missing about four years ago, but his name wasn't immediately released.

The coroner's office is trying to confirm the victim's identity and pinpoint the cause of death.

Two suspects have been questioned by investigators but have not been booked in the case, deputies said.

The suspects, Nell Johnston and Charles Delavega, were both in custody on unrelated charges.

The house's current occupants are not connected to the case, deputies said.
