Homicide investigators were called after a Pickering man found burned human remains in a shallow grave, police said.
Durham police said Sunday they visited an off-road ATV trail near Concession Road 8 and Sideline 20 after the grisly discovery.
An autopsy will be performed to determine more details about the deceased, Durham Regional Police said.
Medical examiners are working with the coroner’s office and a forensic anthropologist to recover the remains, they said.
Anyone who has used the off-road ATV trail in the past three weeks is asked to come forward and speak with investigators by calling 1-888-579-1520. Anonymous information can also be sent to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
