Highway crews spreading salt on interstates in eastern Pennsylvania made a grisly discovery Tuesday -- eight trash bags of body parts.
The bags were discovered at eight places along Interstate 80 and Interstate 380 in the Pocono Mountains, the Pocono Record reported. The first was discovered at about 9 a.m.
Lt. Robert Bartal said the bags were found along a five-mile stretch of I-80 and a 15-mile stretch of I-380. I-80 crosses the Poconos on its way from the George Washington Bridge to San Francisco, while I-380 branches off in the Poconos to Scranton, Pa.
Bartal said investigators believe all the parts were from a single body, probably a light-skinned female. A head was found on I-380.
We're not positive on the female portion of it at this point, he said.
I-380 was closed for several hours, causing massive traffic jams.
