Bellevue detectives responded to the 500 block 150th Pl NE after a City of Bellevue employee discovered bones in a wetlands area. The employee was conducting maintenance in the area just after 8:30 am Wednesday morning. It appears the bones have been there for several years.


Detectives have secured the scene and are waiting for the medical examiner and an anthropologist to determine if the bones are human or animal. Expect a lengthy police presence in the area.
