A woman was detained Sunday while moving a 30 gallon trash can down a residential California road. The trash can had human parts of the body in it. She was already booked on suspicion of murder. Police say she remains not cooperating.
Discovered in broad daylight
Carmen Montenegro, 51, of San Bernardino, Calif., was found moving the wheeled container at about 2:30 in the afternoon. The law enforcement got tips from residents around there. They either smelt or saw the trash and its content.
Ontario Police Detective Jeff Crittendon told reporters that “Officers stopped her leaving the location and in the trash can we found human remains.”
Possible single victim found
Even though the cause of death was not yet determined, the law enforcement think the parts all belong to one man. According to Crittendon, “I can’t comment on the condition of the body because I am not sure of the exact extent of the injuries. I do know that it was dismembered. It appears to be a homicide.” Evidently they “had evidence on her that seemed to be consistent that she was involved with disposal of the body.” This is what Crittendon also said.
Huge hole in the lawn was found
The detective also said that they believe Montenegro disinterred the remains from her previous residence. The arrest was close to her home. It was only about 200 yards away. The property was searched by police. They found a hole that was dug.
Suspect lived in house on and off
Local residents report the home was owned by either Montenegro’s cousin or her mother, and that Montenegro herself had lived in the home on and off for the past 15 years.
Continuing investigation
Police are still working to determine the victim’s identity. The investigators may have found body fluids in the home Monday while they were checking out the property.
Right now she is in Montenegro is in Rancho Cucamonga, California. She has not been cooperative with the investigation.
