Investigation Continues into Discovery of Headless Chickens in Yonkers

The investigation continued Monday into the discovery of five headless chickens at the boat launch of the JFK Marina in Yonkers Saturday afternoon, according to police.

The gruesome discovery was made at about 4:15 p.m., and police have not ruled out the possibility that the chickens could have been part of some sort of ritualistic killing, reports The Journal News.

Police are currently looking to talk to a man and a woman, both in their 50s, who were seen near where the carcasses were discovered, according to News 12.

The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals of Westchester is assisting Yonkers police in the case, according to the department and The Journal News.
