Bones discovered behind a garage on Arlington Avenue are definitely human, police said today.
Police were at the site, located at 553 Arlington Ave., all day Tuesday and bones dug up in the evening were undeniably human, said Chattanooga Police Capt. Tim Carroll, head of the major crimes division.
Police were working with University of Tennessee’s Forensic Anthropology Center on the case, and technicians from the center came to the site today, taking the bones back with them to Knoxville.
No identification has been made and it is not known whether the person is male or female, police said.
