A search conducted Wednesday at Peterkin Park Pond in an Amityville is connected to the ongoing human remains investigation, News 12 sources say.
The Suffolk County Police Underwater Search and Recovery Unit were there throughout the day. A Suffolk County police helicopter was also circling the pond during the search.
As News 12 has reported, body parts of a male victim and a female victim were found scattered in Babylon, West Babylon and Bethpage State Park.
Four suspects have been arrested in connection to the case. Three of those suspects lived just two blocks away from the pond that was searched.
Peterkin Park Pond was closed to the public temporarily but reopened around 3:30 p.m. when the search ended.
