KE­JAN HAYNES

Po­lice of­fi­cers were at a site along the South­ern Main Road in Curepe, a few hun­dred me­tres from Bushe Street, this morn­ing, where a dis­mem­bered was dis­cov­ered.

De­tails are still com­ing in, but Guardian Me­dia un­der­stands that at around 9:00 am, po­lice were alert­ed to a stench com­ing from an aban­doned lot.

Up­on check­ing the site, the of­fi­cers found a dis­mem­bered body.

A light traf­fic jam re­sult­ed as cu­ri­ous on­look­ers and mo­torists at­tempt­ed to glean what was hap­pen­ing.

The uniden­ti­fied per­son’s re­mains even­tu­al­ly were re­moved at about Noon, and traf­fic was able to flow freely once more.

In­ves­ti­ga­tions are on­go­ing.

This is a de­vel­op­ing sto­ry and Guardian Me­dia will up­date it as de­tails come to hand.
