Mysterious powder dropped on Forest Grove home

FOREST GROVE, Ore. -- Forest Grove police are trying to figure out why someone dropped a bag of some sort of powder material from a small plane earlier this week.
Officer Mike Hall shows reporters the bag filled with a powdery substance.
The bag fell onto Barbara Vreeland�s home, smashing through her roof and leaving behind an eight-inch hole.
"The house just vibrated, you could just feel the impact,� Vreeland recalled.
Inside the home, investigators found a bag and 14 pounds of powdery material scattered all over the attic insulation. They said the substance resembled ash.
�There's been debate that it's possibly cremated remains,� explained officer Mike Hall with Forest Grove police.
Barbara Vreeland's house now has a hole in the roof that needs to be repaired.
The State Crime Lab is analyzing the substance and should know soon if investigators are correct.
Witnesses said a low-flying, single engine plane circled the area three times Sunday evening before the passenger dropped a bag. They said the plane was white with blue trim and looked like a model similar to a Cessna.
�We are investigating it as reckless endangerment,� Hall said.
Vreeland can�t imagine why someone would drop the bag on her home and she�s glad no one was hurt.
Police think the person may have actually been aiming next door because Vreeland�s home borders a cemetery.
Forest Grove police are asking anyone with information about the plane or the mysterious powder to contact investigators.

I figure from the color of it eventhough its morbid I'm hoping it's remains I would hate to think it was a biological weapon or Drugs.
