A human arm and two legs appeared in New Haven, Connecticut.
The tale plays out like a short Gothic story, starting with an unnamed civilian's suspicion and discovery:
“someone who said that they had walked by the area of Union Street and Chapel Street, and for quite some time had smelled what seemed to be a rotting smell... started screaming, ‘hey, come here, I think I found something, two human legs, come here, I want to make sure it is real...'”
And then:
Just after 11:20 a.m., police responded to the area near the State Street Train Station on a report of human remains found, and found legs. Police say at about 7 p.m., investigators found a plastic bag that appears to contain at least one human arm.
No explanations or hypotheses have surfaced so far.
A detail for those devoted Infocult readers who think of such things:
[New Haven Police Department public information officer David Hartman] says there’s no certainty the arm and legs are related.
Infocult: following dismemberment, wherever it leads.
