THE WOODLANDS, Texas (KTRK) — A fetus in the early stages of development was found inside an urn that was floating in a pond in The Woodlands, deputies said on Tuesday.
According to the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office, a Woodlands Township Park Ranger made what authorities called a “distressing discovery” at about 3:50 p.m. at Copper Safe Park at 75 South Golden Arrow Circle.
MCSO detectives and a Montgomery County Forensics Center death investigator were called to the pond. An autopsy was also scheduled.

The sheriff’s office also tried to appeal to neighbors about the sensitivity surrounding the discovery.
