SURREY RCMP are investigating two separate reports of partial human remains located in Whalley and asking for anyone with any information to contact police.

On April 17, just before 9 a.m., Surrey RCMP responded to a report of possible partial human remains located in the 13400-block of Hilton Road.  Frontline officers attended the location and learned that a person located the possible remains in some bushes.

On April 19, at approximately 1 p.m., Surrey RCMP received a report that possible partial human remains were located in the 10600-block of 135A Street.  Frontline officers attended and upon initial visual inspection believed the remains to be human.
