Lorton, Va. –– Partial skeletal remains have been found in Lorton.
A man walking along Furnace Road on Tuesday called police and reported seeing the remains near the bottom of a railroad bridge just off of the road, said Fairfax County police spokeswoman Tawny Wright.

The bones were found along the portion of Furnace Road that lies east of U.S. 1.
