DERBY, Kan. (KAKE) -
Police are investigating after construction crews found what appear to be human remains inside an old coffin at a business in Derby.
Police say workers were doing renovations inside a building near K-15 and West Market Monday morning when they made the discovery. The coffin was found in the attic of a business.
"Yesterday I tried to take down all the insulation," said Eliseo Flores. "I saw a coffin there, almost, about four foot long. And I was curious, tried to open it... My surprise was when I saw a head, a human head, a lot of bones."
Flores and his boss removed the coffin, put it on the floor and called the building's owner, who then called police.
