Police said DNA testing through the El Paso County Coroner’s Office showed a possible match to 55-year-old Donald Gillison, who has not been seen since 2016. Police say at this time there is no indication of foul play.

Gazette news partner KOAA reported that police investigating the remains seemed to be centered on the creek near the sixth hole of the golf course.

Gillison had been the subject of a Crime Stoppers wanted bulletin in July of 2016, wherein he was described as 46 years old (at the time), 205 pounds, 6 feet, 1 inch tall, with brown balding hair and hazel eyes. He was wanted by law enforcement on suspicion of second-degree burglary and manslaughter.

Public records indicated that Gillison had lived in Fountain at one time, but had a listed residence in Kentucky at the time of his disappearance.

Patty Jewett is a 27-hole course that was founded in 1898.

Anyone with information about Gillison can call 719-444-4000, or 719-634-7867 to remain anonymous.
