A report of a severed hand found at an Oahu seabird sanctuary has turned out to be dried squid.
The Honolulu Star-Advertiser reports that a woman contacted a state agency and reported seeing the hand at the Moku Auia Seabird Sanctuary, also known as Goat Island. She said she spotted the hand over the weekend and again Thursday.
Honolulu police homicide detectives were called to the sanctuary to help with the case.
Police spokeswoman Michelle Yu said Thursday afternoon that the object was determined to be dried squid.
