[h=1]LCSO: Human skull discovered in Lowndes County backyard[/h]
Deputies with Lowndes County Sheriff's Office received a call about possible human remains in the backyard of a residence on Armistad Road, off Highway 69 South, at about 7:30 p.m. Tuesday. There, investigators found multiple bones, including the skull.
"I'm pretty confident in saying the bones we recovered are going to be animal bones, but this is definitely going to be a human skull, no doubt about that," LCSO Capt. Greg Wright said.
However Wright said authorities are far from declaring the incident a homicide investigation. He said the skull appears to be very old and doesn't seem to have signs of traumatic injury.

He added investigators believe the homeowner's dogs found the skull in the woods nearby and brought it to the house, along with the other bones.
