Suffolk County police believe the man accused of fatally stabbing his father at their Rocky Point home on Saturday, Nov. 9, crashed a car near the intersection of State Route 25A and the William Floyd Parkway minutes later as he fled from the scene.
Police believe Matthew Zoll, 23, was injured during the crash which has led police to focus on the wooded areas surrounding that intersection as part of the investigation that has now gone on for more than a week and a half.
Investigators said they impounded the black GMC Yukon SUV for evidence.
On Nov. 9, police responded to 30 Quail Road in Rocky Point around 1:25 a.m. after a caller reported a stabbing. Police found Joseph Zoll, 61, seriously injured and transported him to Stony Brook University Hospital where he later died.
Anyone with information on Zoll’s location is asked to call 911, the Homicide Squad at 631-852- 6392 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-220-TIPS.
