Human skull found at Seattle park prompts homicide investigation

A human skull was found Wednesday in a fenced-off area at Be'er Sheva Park in Seattle with evidence that the victim had been stabbed, officials said.

A homicide investigation is underway in Seattle after a human skull was discovered last week at a local park with signs of foul play, authorities said Monday.

The human remains were found in Be’er Sheva Park on Lake Washington in the city’s Rainier Beach neighborhood just after 7 a.m. on Wednesday, the Seattle Police Department said.

A Seattle Parks employee told police he found the skull while cleaning debris from a fenced-off area of the park.
