"OAKLAND The dismembered lower extremities of a person were discovered in the Fruitvale district Sunday morning and police are trying to determine if they are linked to other human remains found Feb. 1 about four miles away, authorities said. An autopsy and other tests are being conducted on the remains found Sunday to determine the sex, a cause of death and if they are linked to the body parts found earlier this month."
"The two lower limbs were found about 1 a.m. Sunday in a bushy area on the 1700 block of 37th Avenue by someone who lives in the neighborhood, authorities said. They were in a state of decomposition and authorities believe they had been there for several days. Different dismembered remains were found Feb. 1 and that case is being investigated as a homicide, although it is unclear how the person died. Authorities have not said exactly what parts of the body they were and it has not been determined if they are of a man or woman."
