Police: No grave found at Dad Perry Park
Lawrence police were called Wednesday afternoon to Dad Perry Park, where investigators examined what appeared to be a grave site.
About 7:45 p.m., Lawrence police Sgt. Dave Hubbel said police found what looked like some sort of shrine and a cross. However, no body was discovered.
Detectives will continue to investigate the scene to determine whether a crime occurred, but that doesn’t appear to be the case, officers said.
Police initially responded to a call about 4:15 p.m. from a resident who found what appeared to be consistent with a small grave in a wooded portion of the park.
The park is at the southeast corner of Monterey Way and Harvard Road.
