SAN ANTONIO, Sept. 25 (UPI) -- Six Flags Fiesta Texas security personnel found skeletal human remains at the theme park in San Antonio, police say.

San Antonio Police Department spokesman Joe Rios said clothing was found near the discovery of human remains, which took place Wednesday outside of the general public area at the amusement site, the San Antonio Express-News said Thursday.

"(The remains) weren't anywhere near the public (area)," Rios said.

The remains are suspected to have been there at least six months and no official cause of death was immediately determined, officials say.

The Bexar County Medical Examiner's office is analyzing the skeletal remains in hopes of learning the cause of death and identifying the remains, the Express-News said.
