"Friends, Romans, Countrymen"----Human Ear found in street
In case you haven't heard:
A severed human ear has been found in a city street, police said today. The discovery has baffled detectives after builders came across the ear on a pavement near Strangeways Prison in Manchester.
Strange ways indeed.
Police have checked with hospitals but no-one has been admitted without an ear and no-one has come forward to claim it. No other body parts were found after a search of the area. A spokeswoman for Greater Manchester Police said: "Police were informed of what is believed to be a human ear discovered on Great Ducie Street, Strangeways. "The item has been removed and initial visual identification indicates it may be a human ear.
"It looks like a ear, don't it Jock?"
"Can't say, better send it for visual ID."

"It has been sent for forensic tests."
"an' some forensic tests too, I wager."
Experts will now run tests to try to discover the owner of the ear.
Mr. Van Gogh, is that you?
Detectives want to make sure it is human ear after a similar find a number of years ago of what was thought to be a human finger turned out to be a sausage.
Then there was the Bobbitt case, so you never know.
