Eyeballs found in trash at Kansas City gas station

• A gas station seems like an odd place to dump eyeballs.

The Kansas City Police Department is investigating a pair of eyeballs that were found in a box in the trash of a Conoco station at Northwest 112th Street and North Ambassador Drive in the Northland. The peepers were in a cardboard box labeled “Keep refrigerated” when they were discovered Wednesday night.

The AP reports that KCPD spokesman Steve Young said the department is trying to determine if the eyes were human.
