Suspect in custody in decades-old cold case of missing boy Etan Patz, police say
May 24th 2012, 11:06

DEVELOPING: The New York City police commissioner said a person who's in custody has implicated himself in the disappearance and death of Etan Patz 33 years ago.

Commissioner Raymond Kelly said in a statement that further details would be released later Thursday.

The 6-year-old disappeared in 1979 while walking to a bus stop in Manhattan's SoHo neighborhood. 

The April excavation of a Manhattan basement yielded no obvious human remains and little forensic evidence that would help solve the decades-long mystery of what happened to Patz.

The suspect was arrested in New Jersey on Wednesday and taken to New York City for questioning, Fox affiliate WNYW reported.

He was known to investigators and is not a new figure in the case, law enforcement sources told the stations. He worked and lived in the neighborhood where the boy disappeared.
