Three suitcases appearing to contain human remains were discovered along a highway Friday in Delray Beach, Florida, according to local outlet FOX35 Orlando.

Delray Beach police officers found one of the suitcases following a 911 call at around 4 p.m., alerting them to “something strange” in the Intracoastal Waterway near the 1000 block of Palm Trail, FOX35 reported.

Law enforcement then found two more suitcases allegedly holding human remains along the Southeast 7th Avenue and Casuarina Road area of the Intracoastal, the Delray Beach Police Department confirmed to the outlet. (RELATED: Human Skeletal Remains Found Near Highway, Prompts Investigation)
