human leg found
 

a human leg was found down the road from the village i live in, it was found yesterday by a member of the public.
it is believed to belong to a male.
Officers from the Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire Major Crime Unit have been carrying out a search of the area.

A police spokeswoman said: "Detectives are looking into every possibility as to why the remains came to be there."

nothing EVER happens in my village
ITV vans and forensic vans were there today.
its quite exciting

eeeek i dont know what id do if i found a leg, probably scream at the top of my lungs.

Eww =\ I would be so freaked out if I found that! It was bad enough when I found a dead cat lol
Will give the old ladies something to talk about!

Was this on the sky new headlines? like a leg that had been found with a shoe on it? i saw about that earlier but i dont know if this is the same one!

^ Probably! Its not like legs are just found randomly every day..well you never know..

i found out cos its 5 mins drive from where i live.
there were loads of police vans and forensic vans and stuff.
it is slightly scary
too close to home for me

i wonder where the rest of him is...

Perhaps i'm missing something, but i don't see what's exciting about the discovery of a dismembered body, or rather, body parts. I find the news disturbing, it's the sign of a violent homocide and a murderer on the loose!

i aheve top agree ^^...
i dont really see how it can be called 'exciting'...
romp

obviously not excited about the actual dismemberment part, that is rather disturbing
it was just quite exciting seeing all the news vans and stuff, nothing ever happens round here

I can see the excited element!

they found a head in a bag round from me on new years eve. it is a bit unnerving when that happens, especially as you know that you have walked by it and not known.

police were at my house this morning.
asking about the leg :s
apparently its a chinese leg

wow, that sounds really scary. i guess it's not good news for the rest of the body; if the person was okay then i think they'd have told someone about their leg being missing by now. but then, if someone was killed, the person who killed them, why are they leaving legs lying around?

sorry i'm rambling.

i hope things get less scary soon.

Has anyone heard from Linda recently?

i just properly lol'd.. and then laughed too much and snorted.

I am SO glad you did, I was worrying someone might find it tasteless.

Eirinn that's brilliant.

they found a skull round here a few weeks ago.

my God, i didn't realise there were so many body parts scattered around the country.

kinda scary isnt it

how do they know the leg is chinese?!

There were some king prawn noodles close by.

(in all serious, probably d.n.a testing & that kinda thing)

the rest of him might still be alive...it would narrow the search down a lot if there was a one legged man wandering around.

totally
the leg thing is kinda becoming a running joke in our village :s
im gonna try to find out more

PMSL

they've found an arm now . !!!

I just heard on the news that they have found an arm 20 iles away from where the leg was :S they are linking it together.

read !!!

He will probably turn up in an election somewhere.

I keep thinking of the Black Knight bit from Monty Python ("It's just a scratch!").
