Police confirm human remains found in Warwickshire
Officers were called to Kilsby Lane in Rugby on Saturday.
Warwickshire Police say they can confirm human remains have been found in Rugby.
On 17 February, officers were alerted to the possibility that skeletal human remains were to be found on Kilsby Lane.
Following investigation which required the closure of the road and support from an archaeologist and anthropologist, human remains believed to be of an adult male have been located and removed from the site.
They are now the subject of further analysis and investigation, which will take some time.
On their website, the force say they are working hard to identify the body and the circumstances of this sad death. We want to be able to inform the family before releasing any further information.
They add:
"We appreciate the impact on local residents of Kilsby Lane being closed and will ensure it’s reopened as soon as possible.
"We will update further as the investigation progresses and when it’s appropriate."
