- A human heart has been found in a salt pile by workers at a transportation facility in Tennessee — and authorities are investigating the bizarre discovery as a homicide.
- Workers at the state Transportation Department salt facility in McEwen were making preparations for inclement weather when they made the discovery Thursday — only later confirmed to be a human heart.
- The organ was transported to the state medical examiner’s office in Nashville, where testing of tissue samples confirmed it was a human heart ripped from an adult male.
