Skulls uncovered in Cleveland warehouse

CLEVELAND - A collection of skulls found in a carton at a warehouse are human skulls, a doctor on the staff of the Cuyahoga County coroner said Tuesday.

Dr. Heather Raaf, chief deputy coroner, said a forensic anthropologist examined the skulls and determined they are human. She said each is a partial skull that may at some point have been buried.

"We had an anthropologist look at them and he said they are all definitely human, but they are old. They are not people who recently died. We think they had been buried and somehow unearthed, because they were weathered, and there was some moss and mold on them," Raaf said.

She said that in the parts observed there is "no sign of violence or injury."

The skulls were discovered Friday at a warehouse for Marci's discount stores in the Cleveland area. Warehouse employees called police when a carton of what they thought was holding ceramic figurines revealed bone where one had cracked.

Funeral held for former Ky. Gov. Nunn

GLASGOW, Ky. - Former Gov. Louie B. Nunn was buried Tuesday beside his former wife and other family members after a last round of sometimes rollicking eulogies.

Larry Van Hoose, who worked in Nunn's administration and in his political campaigns, spun tales of his old boss for a funeral congregation of 200 or more at First Christian Church in Glasgow, where Nunn had been a Sunday School teacher, elder and church board chairman.

Nunn, died Thursday in Versailles, apparently of a heart attack.

He was governor from 1967 to 1971.

Cocaine worth $1M found in SUV

INDIANAPOLIS - Police arrested two men after a drug-sniffing dog found about $1 million worth of cocaine in their sport-utility vehicle.

Officers found 10 kilograms of unprocessed cocaine in the SUV after they stopped the driver for speeding Monday on Interstate 70 on the far-east side of Indianapolis .

The men were turned over to the Drug Enforcement Administration for questioning, police said. Their names were not released.
