Police are investigating after possible human remains were found in a park in Long Beach during an Easter egg hunt.

Preliminary, though unconfirmed, information suggested that a small skull was found partially buried in the dirt at DeForest Park, located at 6255 De Forest Avenue, and may be that of an infant.

Footage shows a heavy presence of police, and at least one Long Beach Fire Department fire truck, at the scene.

A portion of the park had been cordoned off with yellow crime scene tape while investigators set up a white canopy, typically used in death investigations, in an area surrounded with dense brush.
