A road crew in Cameron Parish made a grizzly discovery. A severed human head was found inside of a bag alongside Louisiana Highway 27. Sheriff Ron Johnson says it appears the head has been there quite a while, with no other evidence at the scene. Johnson says the coroner is trying to determine the age and sex.
It’s unknown at this time when the bag and head were dumped in the area. Johnson says he’s surprised someone didn’t see it sooner, even though it was in a marshy area.
Johnson says the discovery is believed to not be connected to any missing person cases in Cameron Parish, as the last case dates back to the 1980’s.
