A Texas repairman found human remains inside a barbecue grill on Tuesday at a Houston home he was contracted to work at, reported the Houston Police.
The repairman called the police, who arrived later at the house on 5200 Peach Creek with a search warrant at around 3 p.m. on Tuesday. The police confirmed that it was indeed a body that was inside of the built-in grill.
Houston police said they found a full skeleton inside the grill. However, the remains seemed old, and they could not identify the gender or age of the victim. Police said that the remains seem to belong to an adult.
"It's a full skeleton with a skull," Sgt. William Dunn said. "I don't know if any bones are missing, but it appears to be a full skeleton."

The case is being investigated by authorities. The remains were sent to a medical examiner to help determine the cause of death and any other details that could help police find the killer.
So far, no charges have been filed in connection with the incident.
Police interviewed all of the family members who live in the home. So far, police seem to think everyone is accounted for.
