POLICE have launched a probe after human remains, believed to be a fragment of bone, were discovered on a beach in Angus this week. The grim discovery, on Lunan Beach near Montrose on Wednesday, came just days after a woman’s skull was found near an Edinburgh golf course. Part of Gogarburn Golf Club was shut down as police investigated the discovery last weekend. A wider search of the area around Lunan Beach turned up no further remains. A Police Scotland spokeswoman said: “We can confirm families of missing persons have been contacted after a fragment of human bone was recovered from Lunan Bay in Montrose and inquiries are continuing.” Further police investigations were carried out on Thursday.
