‘Ancient remains’ unearthed at construction site in Toronto’s east end
Workers unearthed human remains Friday while installing a water service line in the east end, the City of Toronto says.
The remains were found at the construction site on Withrow Avenue. The city said crews subsequently contacted Toronto police, who launched an investigation led by an anthropologist.
“The anthropologist confirmed they are ancient remains. Construction is halted while the investigation is ongoing,” the city said in a statement.
