\n<\/span><\/p>\nThe FBI will supply high-tech surveillance aircraft to authorities investigating a possible serial killer on Long Island in New York later this week, a police official has said.<\/p>\n
Police have discovered 10 sets of human remains since December near a highway leading to Jones Beach State Park.<\/p>\n
Helicopters and aircraft equipped with special cameras will reportedly be used in the hunt for further human remains.<\/p>\n
The police search is being hampered by the density of the seaside brush.<\/p>\n
Searching for victims<\/span><\/p>\nSuffolk County Police Commissioner Richard Dormer said on Wednesday that federal investigators would supply both helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft equipped with advanced cameras to search more than 15 miles (24km) of thick brush along Ocean Parkway, just east of the New York City border.<\/p>\n
Volunteer firefighters with ladders and mounted police units have been employed in recent days to assist in the search for more victims.<\/p>\n
Police divers scoured the waters north of the parkway on Wednesday morning.<\/p>\n
The bodies of four women who worked as escorts were found in the region in December.<\/p>\n
Those remains, which were identified using DNA and dental records, were discovered while authorities were following up on the disappearance of a woman from New Jersey seen working as a escort in the Long Island area.<\/p>\n
Investigators continue to search for the remains of Shannan Gilbert, a New Jersey woman who was last seen in May at nearby Oak Beach, where she had arranged to meet a client she had met through Craigslist.<\/p>\n
Six more sets of remains were found in the past two weeks along the same parkway.<\/p>\n
Police have not officially linked the remains discovered in the last several weeks with those found in December.<\/p>\n
“The indications we have right now is that there is no connection,” Mr Dormer said.<\/p>\n
He added that officials wre awaiting the results of forensic testing before discussing the identities of the most recent sets of remains.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p>\n
