More teeth and bones uncovered

MORE teeth and bones have been unearthed at Haut de la Garenne.

Police said this morning that they had found a sixth milk tooth in the fourth cellar of the former children’s home at St Martin and four bone fragments. They do not know whether the bones are from a human or an animal.

The remains found at the home are likely to go to the UK for testing. By the middle of next week, police expect the results on bone fragments and teeth sent to the UK last week. Those reports will include the results of carbon dating, and possibly DNA testing.

Yesterday’s finds bring the total of bone fragments found to around 20, all from the fourth cellar.

A total of six teeth – all from a child – have been found, and all but one from the same location as the bones.
