Georgia authorities are left with more questions than answers about a headless body that was discovered behind a Georgia Burger King.
On Monday, someone stumbled upon the badly decomposed remains in a wooded area near Interstate 475 in Macon, Georgia. However, investigators don’t know how long the body has been there, or if it was male or female remains, local reports said.
“We’re going to need to get a shovel and dig around the body so we can get everything in the body bag so the [Georgia Bureau of Investigation] Crime Lab will have all of the body to process,” Bibb County Coroner Leon Jones told station WGXA on Monday.
Aside from the bones and skin that remained, investigators found a pair of black sneakers near the crime scene. Bu officials are unsure if the shoes belong to the person. The coroner said the body had been there “for a long time,” WGXA said.
