WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. -- A human head was discovered off Jupiter Island by two teenagers who were fishing, authorities said.
Michael Puscani and Rocke Greco, both 17, spotted the head about 4 p.m. Wednesday.
"We didn't know if it was real or not, so we came around again and we were like, 'That's a human head,'" Puscani said. "I was just in shock, and it's a story that's kind of hard for people to believe."
The teens radioed to the Coast Guard and authorities came and picked up the head, said Palm Beach County spokesman Paul Miller.
It was so deteriorated that authorities were not able to determine its sex or race, only that it belonged to an adult, Miller said.
It is being treated as a homicide investigation.
They knew their stuff.
They didn't want to be charged with concealing the evidence of homicide, or improperly disposing of a dead body.
So they didn't touch it.
I thought I was missing something ...
"Sure, I'll come over,
but shouldn't you be calling
that weird, red-head guy?"
"Excuse me, Captain. Where is the ship's head?"
Mate 1: "I gotta go to the bathroom."
Captain: "Use the head."
Must not have had dandruff, or the would have found the Head and Shoulders.
Not only would I not touch it, I wouldn't touch it with somebody else's oar!
