Authorities are currently investigating a set of skeletal remains discovered in west Harris County, specifically near Beltway 8, on Saturday afternoon.
The remains were reported around 12:30 p.m. on the southbound side of the beltway, just north of Clay Road. A local lawn maintenance crew stumbled upon the bones and promptly alerted law enforcement.
Upon arrival, officers confirmed the presence of what appeared to be human skeletal remains. However, the investigation is ongoing, and officials have yet to determine the identity of the remains or the circumstances surrounding the individual’s death. This inquiry is being handled by the Harris County Institute of Forensic Sciences.
Anyone who may have information related to this case is encouraged to reach out to the Houston Police Department’s Homicide Division at 713-308-3600.
