Russian mob rumors are swirling around the small town of Sauget. That's after skeletal remains were found along with Russian money.  A hunter discovered the remains earlier this week, dressed in sweatpants with five rubles in the pocket.  Investigators say one of the theories being tossed around is a connection to the Russian mob.  

They also say the victim was a very large man, with a size 42 waist, and they're using these details to try and make an ID.   Police suspect foul play because there's a hole in the back of the skull.  The remains were found in a remote area west of Route 3.  Anyone with information should contact authorities in Sauget.
