Wednesday, October 01, 2008

The FBI is investigating what could be remains from a mob-related murder.

The investigation was unfolding at a Farmingdale industrial complex.

Suffolk police homicide detectives and officials from the New York City medical examiner's office were also on the scene.

At least two dozen agents were gathered outside an office complex occupied by several businesses.

Agents also blocked off a section of woods.

Six markers were planted in the ground from the sidewalk to the building.
