NEW YORK (AP) — The New York City Police Department says a person walking in a Manhattan park has found the severed head of a horse and other animal parts in a cardboard box.

Investigators say the person was walking through Harlem River park when he came upon the severed head inside a beer box at about 11 a.m. on Sunday.

The Department of Sanitation removed the head shortly after.

The investigation is continuing.
