GLEN GARDNER, N.J. -- Discovery of a bag full of rotting animal parts hidden in the ceiling above the school lunchroom forced the closing of Voorhees High School on Monday.
Officials said the school would remain closed Tuesday to allow workers to sanitize the area and health inspectors to clear the cafeteria to serve food.
"An unusual odor led to the discovery of decomposing animal parts that had been surreptitiously placed in the drop ceiling," Lebanon Township police Patrolman Larry Campbell said.
The bag was found about 7:30 a.m. Monday; students were dismissed at 11:55.
Police believe the bag was hidden over the weekend, Campbell said. He would not say what kind of animal the parts were from or how much was hidden.
The Hunterdon County Prosecutor's Office is investigating.

Ok, so both stories say the police would not say what kind of animal it was, but this reporter somehow knows it was deer. Were there antlers in there or what?
