Police haven’t identified the body discovered in the backyard of missing Ridgewood, Queens, man Frank Soucie, but NBC New York alluded to clues at the scene that suggest the body was buried there recently and therefore could be his, including fresh dirt, gloves, and a bottle of ammonia.

People on Putnam Avenue, apparently.
