CORPUS CHRISTI, Tx — Corpus Christi Police have confirmed that they found human remains in a wastewater well off of Ennis Joslin and Holly Road.

KRIS 6 News received word on Monday, June 24 that CCPD was called to the scene around 3:30 p.m. The CCPD crime scene van and the medical examiner arrived shortly afterward, blocking both sides of Lexington Street.

Police confirmed the remains were found in a wastewater well at a wastewater collection point off Lexington Road. It is not accessible to walk and fall into the well, it's located underground.

There's speculation as to the identity because this wastewater station is a couple hundred yards from Ennis Joslin Road and The Cottages Apartments. However, again, Police said there has been no confirmation to the identity. It will be up to the medical examiner to determine the identity of the human remains.

We will provide an update when the remains have been identified
