Human remains found in suitcase on southwest Bexar County property

The Bexar County Sheriff’s Office was investigating at the scene Thursday. It was unclear how long the remains had been there.

BEXAR COUNTY, Texas — Human remains were discovered inside a suitcase at a property in southwest Bexar County on Thursday, according to the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office.

Some people on the property were feeding animals when they found the suitcase and reported it about 10:45 a.m. Thursday, Sheriff Javier Salazar said.

The identity of the remains will take a while to determine. There was no indication about how long the remains had been at that location.

Investigators were working to process the scene. Salazar said it is being considered a possible homicide, but the cause and manner of death was undetermined.

He said it is unknown whether the person was killed at the property or transported there after death.

The sheriff’s office was applying for a search warrant to finish investigating the scene, but Salazar said the property owners, who are out of town, were cooperating with authorities.

There were signs that burning had taken place on the property, but it was unknown whether that was in any way related to the human remains.
