KCSO says deputies from the Taft Substation were called to the lake at about 9 a.m. for a report of human remains. When they arrived, they found a portion of a human leg that had washed up on shore.
Homicide detectives and a coroner investigator were called to the scene and collected the leg and began an investigation. At this time, the victim's identity and gender are unknown, and the investigation is ongoing.
