New owner finds human remains at fire-damaged home in northeast Harris County
SUMMARY: Human remains were discovered inside a burned home on Village Grove Drive in Harris County. The remains were found by the new owner, who was cleaning the house to flip it. The home had been the subject of an arson investigation in August, and it’s believed the remains have been there since then, buried under debris near the entrance. The tenant, who was facing eviction, was last seen before the fire, and detectives are now trying to locate him. The cause of death and identity of the remains are still under investigation by authorities.

The house had been part of an arson investigation earlier this year. The bones were found in the entryway of the home after new owners were cleaning the damage.
