Possible human skeletal remains were found in a Hispanic religious shop in Compton today, the sheriff's department reported.
Sheriff's Homicide Bureau detectives were sent about 11 a.m. to the store, which is in a strip mall in the 1500 block of North Long Beach Boulevard.
"It is possible these remains are legally possessed skeletal specimens," according to a sheriff's statement.
Nine human skulls were among animal and human bones found at the shop, called Omi Relekun.
