Kwong said the heart is too large to belong to a human “unless it’s a giant.”
“We called the coroner to come and do the inspection, while we were waiting for the coroner to arrive we heard from a student who claimed responsibility for it,” he said.
“It’s actually not malicious at all, it was part of a project, a school project.”
Kwong said police would continue to investigate the incident.
