RENO, NV - Washoe County sheriff's deputies are working with the Nevada Department of Wildlife after body parts were found in some garbage in Cold Springs.

The parts were found Thursday afternoon by Waste Management employees who were emptying garbage from cans into a truck on Brant Street. They thought the body parts might be human, but deputies say they are more likely animal.

We don't know yet what kind of animal or who threw the parts away.
