STUYVESANT — New York State Police are investigating how human remains ended up along the shore of Schodack Island.
State forest rangers, firefighters and investigators from state police were on the scene along the shore in Stuyvesant at the Hook Boat Club, 1627 Route 9J, Monday evening for several hours after they were called around 6:30 p.m.
The investigation is continuing, Trooper Aaron Hicks, a spokesman with state police, said shortly after 8 p.m.
Skeletal remains were also unearthed in another location April 7 by a contractor who was using an excavator on a property located off Route 9J, also in Stuyvesant. Those remains, which were found buried several feet underground, were sent to a museum for study. An investigation by the Columbia County Sheriff’s Office determined no criminal activity had occurred in that case.
