Missing man found dead inside dinosaur statue in Spain

The death of a 39-year-old man is being investigated after his body was found inside a papier-mâché dinosaur statue in a Barcelona suburb.

According to the Latin Times, Catalonian newspaper La Vanguardia reported Saturday that police were alerted to the corpse after residents in the Santa Coloma de Gramenet neighborhood saw what looked like a human leg through a crack in the Stegosaurus sculpture — while also noticing a foul smell. Firefighters were called to the scene and forced to cut open the statue to reveal the body inside.
