PORTSMOUTH, OH (WSAZ) -- Police have found three bones in the backyard of a house in Portsmouth, but they are not those of a human, like they orginially thought.
This after Portsmouth Police and the Portsmouth Daily Times got identical letters that were very specific about the location of the bones. The anonymous lletter referred to a body being buried in late 1964.
Investigators found the bones Friday night at a house in the 2200 block of Vinton Avenue in Portsmouth. After the discovery Portsmouth Police called forensic investigators from Cincinnati to take a closer look. Investigators say at this point the case is closed, unless they get more information from the person who wrote those letters. "The information contained in the letter indicated the person knew exactly what they were talking about," Portsmouth Police Detective James Charles said.
