Police Searching New York Lake for Valley Woman
Police divers with chain saws have cut holes through the ice of an upstate New York lake and slipped in to search for the body of the Valley native gone missing: Laura Garza
They have found only a shotgun, which police say is not related to the case of Laura Garza. Garza has been missing since leaving a Manhattan club three weeks ago with Michael Mele, a registered sex offender and the principal suspect in her disappearance. 23-year-old Mele, is jailed on probation violations and has not been charged in the case.
Officials said that the dive into frigid echo lake, on the border of the towns of Wawayanada and Goshen, was not based on a specific tip but on the lake’s proximity to Mele’s home.
