This past Friday, as construction on Washington Square Park's redesign entered Phase II, a tombstone was unearthed. Dun dun dun. An eagle-eyed reader of the WSP Blog wrote in to that website Friday after "he noticed that there was a large hole dug about 6 feet below the surface in the fenced-off construction area" where two people were seen dusting off the tombstone. Creepy!

Since the middle of last week, the FBI has been digging at an East Farmindale industrial complex, reportedly looking for the remains of three victims of mob hits, including Colombo crime family underboss (and Staten Island resident) William "Wild Bill" Cutolo. But so far, the only bones they've found are non-human bones. Newsday reports that the NYC ME's office determined that the bones were canine, and the FBI is continuing its digs around the site. The two other victims suspected to be buried there are Pace University student, Charles Gargano Jr. (cousin of a Luchese crime family member) and Richard Greaves, suspected of becoming an informant.
