Off topic DNR to identify body

I saw this headline and thought maybe the DNR was maybe expanding in a new direction.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) -- Authorities are continuing to wait for results of DNA tests to identify a man whose body was found in a burned car in Audubon County.

The man's body was found on Dec. 15 when sheriff's deputies responded to a car fire on a gravel road near Interstate 80. The body was found after the flames were extinguished. A cause of death hasn't been determined.

Attempts to identify the man using dental records were unsuccessful.

Authorities know who the car is registered to, but that information hasn't been released, Sheriff Todd Johnson said.

Headline typo unless maybe they are going to charge the guy for contaminating ground water or violation of burning ban?

Pretty sure it is a headline typo, should have been DNA instead of DNR. I saw the headline at the bottom of a page and had to click on it. With my warped sense of humor, I got a chuckle out of it.
