Police found what appears to be a human head in a park in Montreal and are investigating whether it is the missing head of a Chinese student who they say was dismembered by a Canadian low-budget porn actor, an official said Sunday.?
Luka Magnotta is accused of dismembering his lover Jun Lin and mailing the body parts to political parties and schools. He pleaded not guilty last month.
?It?s too early to confirm if this finding has anything to do with the (Lin) homicide,? Constable Anie Lemieux of the Montreal police told the Montreal Gazette. ?We?re waiting on lab results to determine whether what we found are human remains.?
Information obtained over the course of the investigation led police to Angrignon Park, a 110-acre green space in Montreal?s Ville Emard/La Salle district. The park has several densely wooded areas and is just a few kilometres from Magnotta?s apartment in N.D.G.
A ?police official said Sunday it appears to be human and look like a head, according to a National Post report.
Police have been questioning Magnotta with the hope that they would find out the location of the head.?

Investigators say Magnotta, 29, posted a video online showing him having sex with the dismembered corpse. A second, unedited version of the video seen by police shows him eating parts of the body. Police say Magnotta and Lin were in a relationship.?
The case became known when a package containing a severed foot was found at Canada's ruling Conservative Party headquarters on May 29. That same day, a hand was discovered at a postal facility, addressed to the Liberal Party of Canada.?
Lin's torso was found in a suitcase at a garbage dump in Montreal outside Magnotta's apartment building.?
The Canadian porn actor suspected of murdering and dismembering his former boyfriend pleaded not guilty to all five charges against him in a courtroom in Montreal last month. NBC's Michelle Franzen reports.

About a week later, a missing foot and hand were found mailed to two schools in Vancouver. Police said notes were included in most of the packages but declined to say what they said.?
Magnotta, who fled to Europe before the body was discovered, spent a few days partying in Paris before moving on to Berlin, where he was caught last month as he read stories about himself at an Internet cafe. He did not contest his extradition from Germany and arrived in Montreal last month on a Canadian military plane.?
Lin's family arrived in Montreal last month and attended a memorial service last week. Lin, 33, studied computer science student at Montreal's Concordia University.?
