Police in Montreal announced on Sunday that they discovered what appears to be a human head in a city park and are now trying to determine whether it is the missing head of the Chinese student who was dismembered and cannibalized by a Canadian porn actor.
The suspect, 29-year-old Luka Magnotta, is accused of killing and chopping up his lover, 33-year-old Jun Lin, and then mailing the body parts to political parties and schools. Lin's head is the only remaining body part unaccounted for.
Last month, Magnotta pleaded not guilty to five charges against him, including first-degree murder.

Gruesome find: Police came across what is believed to be a human head in Montreal's Park Angrignon
Lin's head is the only body part that remains unaccounted for
Jun Lin, 33, was stabbed with an ice pick and dismembered in late may
Search: Jun Lin's torso, hands and feet were discovered in several different locations shortly after his murder, and his missing head remains the only body part that is still unaccounted for
Montreal police spokesperson Anie Lemieux said investigators made their way to Park Angrignon on Sunday afternoon after the major crimes unit received a tip about a suspicious item spotted on the shore of a lake.
The park is located just a few miles south of Magnotta's apartment where the gruesome murder took place.
A large number of police officers and detectives were on the scene Sunday and a forensic identification truck was seen in the park, the Toronto Sun reported.
The entire area was closed to the public.
Lemieux said they must wait for tests results over the next few days to confirm if there is any link and whether it is in fact a body part.

Police have been questioning Magnotta with the hope that they would find out the location of the head. The family of Lin has been seeking closure.
Investigators say Magnotta, posted a video online showing him stabbing a naked, bound man with an ice pick and then having sex with his dismembered corpse. A second, unedited version of the video seen by police shows him eating parts of the body.
The case became known when a package containing a severed foot was found at Canada's ruling Conservative Party headquarters on May 29. That same day, a hand was discovered at a postal facility, addressed to the Liberal Party of Canada.
Lin's torso was found in a suitcase at a garbage dump in Montreal outside Magnotta's apartment building.

About a week later, a missing foot and hand were found mailed to two schools in Vancouver. Police said notes were included in most of the packages but declined to say what they said.
Vancouver Deputy Police Chief Warren Lemcke said last month that a package containing what appeared to be a human hand was opened by staff at False Creek Elementary School on June 5.
Another package containing what appeared to be a human foot was found by staff at St. George's private school for boys later in the day.
DNA tests later confirmed that the body parts that were mailed to the school belonged to Lin.
Magnotta, who fled to Europe before the body was discovered, spent a few days partying in Paris before taking a bus to Berlin, where he was caught last month following a massive manhunt as he read stories about himself at an Internet cafe.
He did not contest his extradition from Germany and arrived in Montreal on June 18 on a Canadian military plane.
Multiples: Police said Luka had 70 Facebook accounts under different names
As they unraveled his background, police discovered that Magnotta changed his name from Eric Clinton Newman in 2006 and that he was born in Scarborough, Ontario. He is also known as Vladimir Romanov. Police said he has 70 Facebook accounts under different names.
Magnotta's original arrest warrant cited first-degree murder, committing an indignity to a dead body, publishing an obscene matter, mailing obscene matter and criminally harassing Prime Minister Stephen Harper and other members of Parliament.
The 29-year-old bisexual porn actor is being kept in solitary confinement pending a preliminary hearing scheduled for March 13, 2013. The ten-day hearing will be preceded by a pre-trial hearing in January.
During his court appearance on June 21, Magnotta has asked for a trial by judge and jury, but didn't request a psychiatric assessment, as some expected he would, according to CBC News.

Canadian police find severed human head and foot in park near Toronto
Police have little information about discovery that comes a month after a human head was found in a Montreal park
Associated Press in Toronto
guardian.co.uk, Thursday 16 August 2012 20.59 BST
A severed human head and foot have been discovered in a park near Toronto, police in Canada said Thursday.
Peel police acting inspector Randy Cowan said officers discovered the head Thursday morning in the Credit river in Mississauga.
Cowan said it's not clear whether the foot belongs to a man or a woman, but investigators believe it was severed in recent weeks. Police have not said if the foot and head are from the same person.
"Without a cause of death we can't call it homicide, but certainly foul play, there's definitely something amiss," said Cowan.
The right foot was found in the Credit river near the Hewick Meadows Park by hikers and the police marine unit found the head later Thursday.
Police can't yet say if the body parts were placed there or were transported there by the water from some other point in the river, which flows from headwaters above the Niagara Escarpment to Lake Ontario.

Since 2007 on the western coast of Canada, about a dozen severed feet encased in shoes have washed up on beaches near Vancouver, along the southern Georgia Strait and off Washington state in separate incidents.

The best evidence they cite is that the name resembles a character from Basic Instinct, a movie that Luka based his crime on. Personally I'd like to see a bit more thorough investigation into this claim before dismissing it.
