Police believe they have discovered the remains of a young woman who was kidnapped in 2014 in a field in Texas. 

The remains could belong to Christina Morris, the 23-year-old who disappeared  at the Shops at Legacy in Plano on August 30, 2014.

The discovery was made around 10am Wednesday by a crew clearing trees on private land in Anna, Texas, according to Dallas News

As soon as it was discovered they were human remains a team of law enforcement officers were called into the scene. 

Police said it is too early to be sure if the partial remains might belong to Morris, and they have been sent to the Collin County medical examiner's office for identification. 

It's not clear what the remains consist of, or why police believe they might belong to Morris.

Plano police detectives and a crime scene unit were sent to the scene where the remains were found, indicating they could be linked to the young woman.  

Enrique Arochi was convicted of kidnapping her in 2016 and sentenced to life in prison. 

The 27-year-old was acquaintances with Morris, and agreed to walk her back to the car at the in the shopping center after a party near there.  

Arochi was seen in surveillance video that night with Morris at about 4am in a parking garage near the shopping mall. The same footage never showed her drive out of the garage. 

He was arrested and charged with aggravated kidnapping after her DNA was found in the trunk of his car.

Arochi said Morris was never in his car, but police believe she might have been inside when he was pulling away from the garage in the early hours of that morning.  

The last 15 calls on her cell phone, which was either turned off of dead, were to her boyfriend and police said there was no sign of foul play or a struggle near her car. 

Police also had a video of him examining strange parts of his car at a grocery store in Allen just hours after Morris was last ween. 

Evidence at his trial, which started after he was arrested in December, 2014, showed he was in Anna a day after Morris went missing. 

Since then her family and other volunteers, who have not given up hope of finding their daughter, have honed in their search on the area. 

They return nearly every week to conduct a new sweep of the town.
