A renewed police search of the now-dry creek bed yesterday uncovered what are believed to be further human remains.
Police are set to forensically examine the findings to confirm their origin. while police have today been re-interviewing nearby residents.
The find comes as police yesterday announced the new offer of a $500,000 reward for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of a person or persons responsible for Foley's murder.
