The Associated Press By Frank Eltman The Associated Press Thu., April 13, 2017 CENTRAL ISLIP, N.Y. The bodies of four men, all described as having suffered significant trauma, were discovered in a park in a suburban New York neighbourhood that has for years contended with a growing problem of gang violence. Justin Meyers, assistant to the Suffolk County police commissioner, said Thursday that the killings all appeared to be recent homicides. Meyers declined to comment on whether the killings of the four men were gang-related. The discovery of the bodies comes about a month after the arrest of eight MS-13 gang members in connection with the September killings of two teenage girls in nearby Brentwood.
