Workers Discover Body Parts in FedEx Box
KIRKWOOD, Mo. (AP) -- FedEx workers discovered a shipment of two human legs and an arm when one of the boxes was found leaking at a company depot, police said.
A Las Vegas donor research company sent the limbs to a man who sells body parts to doctors for use in research projects, Kirkwood police spokeswoman Diane Scanga said. The FBI, state agencies and local police determined no laws were broken, she said.
The shipment was discovered Wednesday when one of the boxes was found leaking at a FedEx depot in nearby St. Louis. Workers learned each package contained a limb, wrapped in dry ice.
Police refused to identify the man, who was issued a warning for apparently operating an unlicensed home business.
It is against FedEx policy to ship body parts, said Howard Clabo, a spokesman for the Memphis-based company.
