CLEAR LAKE, TX — Houston Police homicide investigators and the FBI are are conducting day two of a search for bodies at the Clear Lake Golf Course, and so far they have come up empty-handed. Yellow tape stretched out and cordoned off search grids where officials said they were alerted that bodies could be buried by a known gang member during an interrogation.

Officials have not indicated why the alleged gang member was under interrogation of if he had any connection to the search for bodies at the golf course.

Homicide investigators spent six hours at the golf course on Wednesday, and were back out at the scene Thursday morning with excavation equipment, but suspended the search after no bodies were found.
