A man’s severed leg has been discovered on a Texas highway — nearly 50 miles away from where he was struck by a car and killed, police said.
Cops were alerted to the body part when a motorist spotted it on the I-10 in Cibolo, just outside San Antonio, on March 22, news station KSAT reported
.
Detectives later discovered that cops in Boerne, 50 miles northwest of where the leg was found, were investigating a deadly crash from earlier that day.
“The leg was turned over to them to see if there was a connection,” Cibolo police spokesman Richard Mireles told the outlet.
The remains were positively linked to the fatal accident involving 48-year-old truck driver Jeremy McGee, police said.
The victim had pulled over on the I-10 and gotten out of his truck when he was hit by a passing SUV, according to cops.
His severed leg somehow became lodged in a truck and ended up being carried 50 miles down the interstate before falling out.
Authorities are still investigating but don’t plan to file charges against the SUV driver.
