Gardaí have launched an investigation after a grim discovery of a human skull was made in County Cork.

The discovery was made by a couple at their rented property in West Cork during a clean-up according to the Irish Times

They are reporting that the skull may have been at the property for some time, and it does not appear to be that of a fully grown adult.

In a statement, Gardaí said that a technical examination of the scene is set to take place following the discovery.

“Gardaí were alerted to the discovery of partial human remains at a location near Eyeries, Co Cork on Friday, April 18,” Gardaí said.

“The scene is currently preserved pending technical examination. The remains, believed to be a human skull, were removed for further examination and DNA analysis.”
