Police in Long Island, New York, have launched a murder investigation after an arm and leg were discovered near an elementary school.
The gruesome discovery was made Thursday morning by a little girl who found a severed arm when she was walking to school with friends. The latter called her father, who went to the scene before notifying the police.
Once there, the police found a leg hidden under a pile of leaves.
The members were allegedly dropped off recently, according to authorities.
“There are a lot of students moving around here. We will speak with them to see if the members were seen yesterday. In our opinion, it’s quite recent,” commented Detective Lieutenant Kevin Beyrer.
Complex identification
Examining the arm, experts realized that the fingertips had been cut off to prevent fingerprints from being taken. However, a tattoo is visible there.
The sex of the person has still not been established.
