A Kansas man who was in search of deer antlers stumbled upon human skeletal remains on his route according to officials per the NY Post

State and local authorities responded to the scene at around 5:30 p.m. on Saturday. Officials say they were able to confirm that the skeleton was human remains but could not identify anything else due to extreme decomposition. 

The Kansas Bureau of Investigation and Allen County Sheriff’s Office have launched an investigation into the case but don’t believe there is any threat to the public.

“In these types of cases investigators typically first consider individuals who have been reported missing in the area,”

a Kansas Bureau of Investigation spokesperson told Fox News Digital.
