Skull found in Auburn creek during road work
Highway workers dredging an Auburn creek stumbled across a human skull yesterday, prompting concern that yet another victim of the Green River Killer had been discovered.
[snip]
Workers with the state Department of Transportation were dredging an area of Mill Creek -- a tributary of the Green River -- along West Valley Highway near an onramp to eastbound state Route 18.

The skull was handed over to the King County Medical Examiner's Office, which will try to determine the gender of the person and how he or she died, Karnofski said.
Investigators worked into the evening yesterday hoping to find the rest of the body or other skeletal remains.

Detectives do not know whether the skull is from remains left where it was discovered, or whether it had washed downstream.
The Green River slayings included the deaths of 49 women in the early 1980s around the Puget Sound area and in Oregon.
