Human remains 'found inside crocodile'

Human remains have been found in the stomach of a crocodile suspected of taking
holidaymaker Arthur Booker in far north Queensland.
Police tonight said a forensic examination of material taken from the stomach of the
4.5-metre crocodile were from a man.
The remains are almost certainly those of Mr Booker, from Logan, south of Brisbane,
who has not been seen since he went to check a crab pot on the Endeavour River near
Cooktown on September 30.
However, police are awaiting the results of DNA tests.
Police earlier played down reports that an X-ray scan had identified a wedding ring
inside the crocodile's stomach.
"A circular shaped object x-rayed inside one of the crocodiles captured from the
Endeavour River cannot be verified as being a wedding band, as reported by some
media outlets," a spokesman said.
