While clearing a recently sold Colorado home, a gruesome discovery was made: human remains.
Officials this week said that they are now investigating the case as a homicide after the coroner determined a head and hands had been found at the property.
Investigators are working to identify the victim, the Mesa County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement Thursday.
“At this time, we have no other definitive answers until further testing can be completed,” the statement said. “These types of tests take a significant amount of time, and again, we ask for patience from the public as this investigation continues.”
The sheriff’s office has made the investigation a top priority in order to “positively identify the victim while remaining respectful of the victim and the victim’s family,” the statement said.
