Police say the contractor found the bones Thursday at a property on Elm Lane.

The Rhode Island Medical Examiner’s Office confirmed that the remains were human, adding that they are not new, but it’s unclear how old they are.

On Friday officials say they found what they are calling “additional evidence” in the area.
