A person of interest has been identified in connection to a severed human leg found in a Milwaukee County park last week.

The Milwaukee County District Attorney’s Office said Maxwell Anderson, 33, was arrested last week after authorities searched his home as he is considered a person of interest in the severed leg that was found in Warnimont Park in Cudahy, FOX6 Milwaukee first reported.

Police have not explained how Anderson became a person of interest in the case and said he has not been charged.

On Tuesday, April 9, prosecutors were granted a 72-hour extension to review the evidence. Otherwise, Anderson could be released.

“How does she come in contact with Mr. Anderson, where do their paths cross,” he said. “That’s going to be the interesting thing.”

The family of Robinson sat in the front row of Anderson’s hearing. Her car was found burned near where police found body parts and remains on three separate days over the weekend.

Since Robinson went missing, her family’s been asking for donations for search efforts, but as of Wednesday night, the GoFundMe said the money will now be used for memorial expenses.

So far, law enforcement has not confirmed if Robinson is dead or connected her in any way to the body parts. Police have also not connected her to Anderson.
