GA: Old bones found in Savannah

Savannah-Chatham police Monday afternoon launched a homicide investigation after human bones were discovered in a wooded area in the city’s Cloverdale Neighborhood.

A Georgia Department of Transportation employee inspecting the property just off the southern portion of Cynthia Street near Bel Air Drive found a human bone just before 2 p.m., said Julian Miller, police spokesman.

Investigating officers found additional bones in the area after they were called to the area about a block from Butler Elementary School near Interstate 16 and Stiles Avenue.

The bones, Miller said, appeared to have been in the area a long time. That could complicate the process in identifying who they belonged to.

Monday evening police sent the remains to the Georgia Crime Lab for analysis. Miller said it would likely take a significant amount of time before they could be identified or police could determine the cause of death.

Savannah-Chatham police always open an investigation like Monday’s initially as a homicide, Miller said, until that could be ruled out.

No other information was immediately available late Monday.

Only after the last tree has been
cut down;
Only after the last fish has been
caught;
Only after the last river has been
poisoned;
Only then will you realize
that money cannot be eaten.

SAVANNAH, Georgia — Police in coastal Georgia say they're working to identify a set of human remains that were discovered in a wooded area near an elementary school.

Savannah Chatham Metropolitan Police spokesman Julian Miller told the Savannah Morning News (http://bit.ly/KfXaTe ) that a state Department of Transportation worker inspecting property found a human bone Monday afternoon.

Investigators say responding officers found additional bones in the area and sent the remains to a crime lab for analysis.

The person's identity and cause of death are unclear
