Tissue Found in McDonald's Parking Lot Wasn't From Human: Police

Tissue discovered at a McDonald's parking lot in Hartford early Thursday morning did not come from a human fetus as originally reported to police, according to police.

Police were investigating an apparent fetus found in the parking lot of the fast food location at 170 Washington Street, but the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner confirmed that it was not human tissue found. Police said the fetus reports they received were therefore false.

Police responded Thursday morning after a 911 call from a McDonald's employee.  Officers put up crime scene tape cordoning off part of the parking lot as they investigated.
