LA PORTE, Texas (KTRK) -- La Porte police are working to identify a person whose remains were found inside a storage shed at the city's golf course.

The investigation began around 8 a.m., after the human remains were found wrapped in a blanket and a tarp at the Bay Forest Golf Course.

Officers at the scene were able to trace the body back to a storage unit at the Spencer Mini Storage on Spencer Highway.

They say the body was originally stored there before being moved to the shed at the golf course.

Golfers who were teeing off said they had no idea any of this was going on until they saw police officers arrive.
