The remains were identified as being human. Officials say that the torso washed up on the banks of the river. The heads, arm, and legs were missing and police are not sure if the body is male or female. The coroner tells LEX 18 that he believes the remains were in the water for some time.
The remains have been transported to the Medical Examiner’s Office in Frankfort for further identification.
Police do believe this was a homicide.
A friend of the fisherman who discovered the body found tells LEX 18 that his friend initially thought the torso was something else.
“All of the sudden he looked down there and he thought it was a deer, a part of a deer and seen it was you know, a torso. You know, part of a body,” says Sam Dennis.
