The body parts belong to a white male who appeared to have been at least 45 years old, said Lt. Butah Uppal of the Sutter County Sheriff’s Department.
The two limbs were discovered Saturday by fisherman. Sheriff’s deputies searching the area the following day found the head in some berry bushes, Uppal said.
Deputies combed the surrounding area with search dogs but found no other body parts. Uppal asked anyone with information to call investigators at (530) 822-7307.
