UPDATE: A 19-year-old man has been charged with murder after body parts of an acquaintance missing for more than a year were found in a shallow grave behind the suspect's suburban Detroit home.
Macomb County Sheriff Anthony Wickersham said Friday that Andrew Fiacco also is charged with mutilating a body. His 18-year-old ex-girlfriend, Eevette MacDonald, is charged with being an accessory after the fact and mutilating a body.
Their arraignments are scheduled Friday.
Stephen McAfee's remains were found Thursday in Ray Township after a friend of MacDonald's provided information on the case to police.
Nineteen-year-old McAfee was last seen in March 2016. Investigators have no motive in his slaying, but have been told he was shot in another location.
Additional parts of McAfee's body have been found elsewhere in the county.

ORIGINAL: Authorities say a young man has been arrested after body parts were found buried in a shallow grave behind a home in suburban Detroit.
Macomb County Sheriff Anthony Wickersham tells The Macomb Daily of Mount Clemens that Thursday's discovery in Ray Township is "related to a missing person's case." He says additional body parts have been located elsewhere in northern Macomb County.
Wickersham says he'll release additional information at a news conference on Friday.
The newspaper and WJBK-TV report a suspect was arrested. Jail records say the 19-year-old has been in custody since Thursday on an open murder charge.
Sheriff's investigators spent much of Thursday at the home. The remains were turned over to the Macomb County Medical Examiner's Office.
