(KNZA)--A charge of criminal use of an explosive has been dismissed against a Holton man.

Rex Larrision was arrested on the charge in April following a multiple day search of his property stemming from a missing person investigation and an investigation into the death of another person.

According to court documents, a preliminary hearing in the case, which had been set for this week in a Jackson County courtroom, was canceled after Jackson County attorney Jeff Morrow dismissed the charge.

Russian immigrant Yulia Larrison went missing in 2001, while Elena Larrison, also a Russian immigrant, was killed in a reported 2006 Holton accident.

The case remains under investigation by the Jackson County Sheriff's Office.
