Package containing body part shuts down VRE tracks in Manassas Park

Virginia Railway Express spokesman Mark Roeber said VRE was notified of a suspicious package on the tracks near Manassas Drive just before 6 p.m. VRE notified police, who had also been notified and gone to the scene.

In the package, police found a human body part, Roeber said. Manassas Park police didnt tell VRE any other details, except to say it was not a head.

The article link above also states, "It is the fifth case of humans remains being found in Northern Virginia since mid-August. Police say it does not appear the cases are related."

Very unsettling...

Thanks! I didn't see that in the original article, but as you can see from my map, there are quite a few remains that have been found in these parts lately, especially in the past couple of months.

"Thursday morning, Manassas Park police spokeswoman Karen Barton said in a press release the remains found inside the package are "not believed to be human," but investigators are waiting for the medical examiner's official findings to say for certain."
