A Glastonbury woman made a disturbing discovery in Glastonbury while walking her dog along Windham Road just after 9:30 a.m. on Saturday when they stumbled onto some human remains.
“She [found what she] believed to be a shallow grave. We responded out there and confirmed her suspicions,” said Sgt. Rich McKeon, from the Glastonbury Police Department.
Police wouldn’t reveal the condition of the remains or the name of the woman who found them.
On Sunday, investigators blocked off the dirt road where the remains were found to gather more evidence.
“It’s not a well-traveled area. It’s remote and it’s wooded, with just dirt trails going through it,” McKeon said.
It’s considered a quiet spot and some folks are surprised that such a gruesome discovery was made there.
“We bike by there a lot. We hike a lot, but I’m shocked,” said Brandon Munson, of Glastonbury.
