Border Patrol Seizes Human Brain Found in Mason Jar

A human brain was seized by U.S. Customs and Border Protection at the U.S – Canadian border last week in a shipment that was only identified as an “Antique Teaching Specimen.” An inspection on a mail truck entering the United States from Canada in Port Huron revealed a package that contained a human brain inside of a clear glass mason jar. The package originated in Toronto and was on its way to Kenosha, Wisconsin, before it was intercepted by agents. The item did not have any paperwork or legal documents and was denied entry into the U.S.
Authorities are investigating how to dispose of the brain.
