Skull of child or small person may have been deliberately placed in Gold Coast park, police say Bushwalker’s discovery in Springbrook national park leaves Queensland police with ‘a lot of questions we need answers for’.
Police are investigating after a bushwalker made the gruesome discovery about 10 metres off a track in Springbrook national park on the Gold Coast on Friday morning.
A skull found in a national park may belong to a child and appears to have been deliberately placed.
Police say the skull is small and may belong to a child or a person of light build, and a crime scene has been declared.
Police were probing how the skull came to be in the park, with investigators exploring possibilities ranging from it being a misplaced museum artefact to a prank.
