Human skull found in Orange Walk dumpsite

Investigations are ongoing in the case of a human skull found at a dump site over the weekend in the Orange Walk District. Police are providing only the minimal details on the discovery. The confirmation we have is that this past Saturday at about twelve twenty-five police were called to the dump site situated at the Chan Pine Ridge road. There they made the gruesome discovery of the charred remains of a human skull. The identity of the person is not known and police would not confirm whether there is any suspicion of foul play. The partial skull, however, was taken to the Northern Regional Hospital Morgue and it is reported that DNA testing will be done to confirm the identity.
