Gardaí are investigating after what is believed to be a severed hand was discovered near a school in Dublin.
They were alerted to the discovery of “partial human remains” at Our Lady Immaculate school in Darndale, Dublin 17, on Friday afternoon.
The scene was held for an examination and the State Pathologist was notified.
Gardaí said: “The remains will be removed for examination and DNA analysis, which will assist Gardaí in confirming the identity and determine the course of the investigation.”
There were no pupils at the school, which is closed for mid-term break.
Gardaí said inquiries are ongoing.
