Schoolboy finds severed fingers in jar
The boy, aged seven, made the discovery on Monday when he was playing behind the gymnasium of his school in Chilly-Mazarin, south of Paris, and noticed a jar poking out of the ground.
“With time the jar must have risen to the surface and the fingers were found in well-preserved condition,” a police spokeswoman said.
