Everyone was astonished when a dog suddenly ran up to a pile of sand at the beach, began snarling and barking, and then dug into the sand.
It was just another scorching day. The beach was packed with people. Kids were racing along the beach, burying themselves in the sand, creating figures, and constructing sandcastles. Some were playing ball, swimming, and sunbathing with pals, while others were lounging with their families beneath a beach umbrella. It appeared to be a serene day, another pleasant, sunny summer day.
A man in his forties was one among the bathers. He was tall, sporting a panama hat, and he and his dog, a reddish short-haired dog with a black collar, were strolling leisurely along the shore. With the leash in his hand, he occasionally spoke to his pet, which joyfully waggled its tail, sniffed the air, and made footprints in the sand.
In an instant, everything was different.
The dog suddenly felt something and swiftly moved its head toward a big mound of sand that was close by. The kids appeared to have gone swimming after finishing building it. The dog bolted for the pile. The leash fell from the man’s hands as the dog ran toward the pile, and he was unable to stop it in time.
It appeared to be a game at first. After circling the sand pile and growling and barking, the dog started digging furiously. The dog ignored the owner’s pleas and people’s looks as it dug deeper, sending sand flying everywhere.
— Hello! The man yelled, “Calm down!” and rushed to seize the dog. But it continued to dig and barked louder.
The man speculated that it might have smelled like trash or food. Or maybe there was a toy hidden beneath the sand. However, when he reached down to seize the dog by its collar, his eyes landed on something that was visible in the sand. and he stopped.
With shaking hands, the man took out his phone and dialed 911
A human hand slowly started to form out of the loose, dispersed earth. Pale and lifeless, with sand grains adhered to the skin and partially eroded by the pit the dog had excavated.
The man nearly toppled as he took a step back in terror. His heart thumped. At last, a voice on the other end of the line answered.
– He helps He trembled as he said, “It’s urgent.” — The dog dug up a hand here on the beach. A human hand!
In a matter of minutes, rescuers and cops crowded the shore. Bathers were asked to stay away from the roped area surrounding the sand pile.
People were shocked and alarmed when they saw the police gently start using shovels to dig out the sand.
Everyone was surprised by what was discovered next. The body of a woman was carefully positioned in the pit beneath the sand. All except the head. There was no head. Police searched the area but could find no sign of the head.
The tranquility of the beach village was disrupted by this horrifying discovery. Suddenly, the beach—a haven of joy and relaxation—became the scene of a crime.
An urgent investigation was started by the police.
Additionally, the dog stopped barking. It seemed to know it had accomplished something significant since it sat quietly next its owner. Maybe anything that sparked the quest for the truth.
