The search for 12 year old Autumn Pasquale has ended horribly. Police say they found her body about a half mile from her home in a blue recycling trash bin on East Clayton Avenue in Clayton, New Jersey. The bin had been placed out for pickup in front of a house around the corner from the Clayton Police Department and near the location where the community held a candlelight vigil last night. The FBI and State Police are investigating the scene. The Pasquale family has confirmed that the body of the girl found is their daughter. A bicycle similar to the one she was last seen riding was also found near where her body was discovered. Authorities say there are no persons of interest in the case, but they will use all of the information obtained during the search going forward into the criminal investigation.
