On Tuesday thousands of people were shocked to find out a suitcase with bones inside was found on an Ocean City beach.
Two days later, The Worcester County Sheriff's Office announced the bone found was actually in a barrel, and it was an animal bone, not human remains.
The sheriff's office originally announced on Tuesday that a couple had stumbled across a suitcase with bones inside at Homer Gudelsky Park. But crews were not able to get to the suitcase that day because of the tides.

On Wednesday officials changed the object from a suitcase to a trunk and a trunk to a barrel as they searched the beach for the mysterious object.
The barrel was then finally opened and the bone inside was sent to the medical examiner's office for evaluation.
