Severed Arm Discovered in Long Island Front Yard

 “I think they just drop it in there. Very carefully drop it because it wasn’t like far from the fence. They didn’t even, didn’t even throw it. Just reach from the fence, put it in there.” Those are the words of Jose Diaz of Bay Shore Long Island, describing to WABC7 what he saw when the arm was discovered.

Diaz also said “that he and his family started smelling something in their front yard on Tuesday.” On Wednesday when the smell persisted, his brother-in-law Noel Rivera went to investigate. The initial thought according to Diaz, was that a dead animal was responsible for the smell, but that thought quickly changed when Noel Rivera saw fingernails.

The Nassau County police arrived—even bringing a cadaver dog to look for more remains—as did investigators from Suffolk County, who are looking into remains found in Bay Shore. That partially dismembered body was discovered near the Fire Island Ferries parking lot. Investigators are now trying to determine whether the remains belong to a missing Brooklyn woman, who had been having problems with a landlord.

 Diaz continued; “To do something like this it was a premeditated act to cut up somebody like that and drop them here and there. I want justice is done.”
