Police: Skeletal Remains Found In Baltimore Woods

BALTIMORE (AP) -- Police say human remains have been found in a wooded area in northern Baltimore.

The skeletal remains were found Monday morning in a wooded area behind an industrial park on West 41st Street.

Spokesman Anthony Guglielimi says it's not clear yet whether the remains belong to a man or woman or what happened to the person. He says once the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner determines the gender and age of the person, investigators can begin to try to match the remains to relevant missing persons cases.
