Sunday Update: Jasper Howard Homicide

((HT: WTIC-TV/WTNH-TV/The Hartford Courant))

The state police dive team was searching Swan Lake near the entrance to the University of Connecticut campus on Saturday.

A diver was videotaped in the water as officers were assisting from the shore in Storrs, and a second diver was searching on the other side of the shallow lake.

Police would not say if they were searching for a knife in the case of the murder of UConn football cornerback Jasper Howard, who was stabbed during an on-campus fight last weekend and died Sunday. State police officials at the scene said they could not comment.

Lt. J. Paul Vance, the chief spokesman for the state police, confirmed that officers were at the scene, but he referred questions Saturday to the UConn police.

Who, of course, would still not comment...

WTNH-TV's Marc Robbins got to stand out in the rain for their return home to Storrs for his live shot...
