Charges are pending after decomposing human remains were found in a storage unit last week in Knox County.  The Knox County Sheriff’s Department says deputies responded to the storage units Friday on East Third Street in Maquon following a complaint about a suspicious odor.  The deputies met with the manager of the storage facility, who took them to the unit where the smell was coming from.  Decomposed human remains were found inside a box in the unit.  The owner of the storage unit was arrested and later taken to the hospital for medical reasons.
