Police are investigating a homicide in Bay Shore that took place early Sunday morning.

Suffolk police say the investigation is happening at the Bay Shore train station parking lot.

Crime scene detectives were searching the platform for evidence and dusting the railing for fingerprints.

Police say the call came in at 2:30 a.m.

A male was taken to the hospital and pronounced dead, according to authorities.

Police have still not said if anyone is in custody.

Scott Woodrick lives across the street. He said when he woke up this morning, the parking lot was flooded with officers. He says police went through his security camera footage.

“They’re looking for them,” Woodrick said. “They’re looking for whoever did this… I think there might have been multiple people.”

“I am surprised,” said Leo Larkin, of Lynbrook, after getting off the train. “I'm surprised because this area has just gotten better and better. So it’s surprising to hear that some kind of violent crime may have happened here.”

The MTA says trains were skipping the Bay Shore station in both directions this morning, but the stop is back up and running now.
