CHICAGO, Dec. 9 (UPI) -- Chicago police are trying to identify human remains found on the tracks of the Orange Line elevated train near Chinatown.

The conductor said he stopped the train and found body parts -- that appear to be that of a man -- on the track just above ground level, said police spokeswoman Laura Kubiak.
Police do not know if the person was hit on the tracks or whether the remains were placed there, Sgt. Edward Alonzo told the Tribune.
