The Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office announced Saturday that it is conducting a homicide investigation on the foot and other human remains recently discovered near a construction site in East Port Orchard.
Based on the King County medical examiner’s preliminary analysis of the remains, it appears they belonged to a male in his late teens or early 20s who died two to 12 months ago. A construction worker found the initial remains – a severed human foot in an athletic shoe or boot – near the 3100 block of Harold Drive S.E., north of Lund Avenue and south of Lundberg Road, according to a sheriff’s news release. After search dogs alerted on a specific location, authorities began excavating the site Monday. They found human bones, which were transferred to the King County Medical Examiner’s Office.
