Youngstown Police and the Mahoning County Coroner have identified remains of a woman found on Youngstown's Northside over 25 years ago.

The Mahoning County Coroner's Office confirmed the identity of then 30-year-old, America Williams.

William's remains were found in a vacant apartment on Otis Street on the city's Northside on Oct. 31, 1995.

The coroner's office says the remains were so badly decomposed it was extremely difficult to recover DNA.

Investigators were able to use dental records later provided by William's family to identify her.
