The Ottawa Police are saying that a suspicious package delivered to the Conservative Party of Canada headquarters may contain a human foot.
The package was reported to police at 11:16 a.m. ET and was X-rayed by police investigators who found the suspected body part. "We are waiting for the coroner to come down and confirm that there are human remains in the package," Ottawa Police Staff Sgt. Bruce Pirt told The Huffington Post Canada.
The Ottawa Citizen and CBC are reporting that a suspicious package, believed to contain a human foot, has been sent to the Conservative Party of Canada headquarters in Ottawa.
Ottawa Police and a hazardous materials team arrived at 130 Albert Street and a coroner is now en route to assist with the identification.
The Major Crimes unit is investigating. Ottawa Police told CBC that major crimes investigators have taken over the call because if the object is a foot, "there's a body without one," said Staff Sgt. Pirt.
The CBC is also reporting that the package was reportedly delivered via Canada Post and that police will be tracking it.
