Animals love to bring presents home - displaying them with pride and joy - a token of love for the owner. A sweet gesture for sure, unless said gift happens to be a human leg bone - then it is just plain creepy.
"I examined it," Flowers said. "I picked it up, and looked at the toes and nothing. None of the leg or foot was damaged - from the knee down it wasn't damaged at all."
Flowers said the leg was gray in color, and was dismembered about 4 inches from the buttocks.
He buried the leg in his backyard, and didn't call police until four days later - at the urging of his daughter.
"When I got home he told me, and I said, 'Dad we have to call the police'," Cheryl Flowers said.
Bill Flowers says he didn't report the incident immediately because he was scared he might be accused of murdering the person.
He said, "I was afraid to call. I'm 93 years-old. I didn't want to have to go to the pen for something I didn't do."
Search and rescue dogs were brought in and they located a pelvis and rib cage in the woods near to an old fish hatchery. Tests will be run on the parts to determine gender and manner of dismemberment.
