An investigation is underway after two human thigh bones were found displayed prominently on the pavement outside a north London pub. <\/p>\n
Dan Gardner told the Islington Gazette he had noticed the bones as he headed back from his local The Crown in Cloudesley Square, Barnsbury on Sunday afternoon. <\/p>\n
The 44-year-old said: I tried to ignore it, telling myself they were animal bones. <\/p>\n
Eventually, Gardner called the police. <\/p>\n
They reckoned the bones were femurs. It certainly made for an interesting Sunday. <\/p>\n
Its just odd, as whoever laid the bones there clearly wanted them to be found. The bag was open and it was in broad daylight with people walking about. <\/p>\n
A Met Police spokesman said the force had been advised by a specialist that the bones appeared to be human and are not believed to be ancient. <\/p>\n
He added: It is also too early at this stage of enquiries to confirm if the discovery is suspicious or not. No arrests have been made. <\/p>\n
Femur bones are both the longest and strongest bones in the human body, extending from the hip to the knee. <\/p>\n
