The body parts of a missing 8-year-old Brooklyn boy were found Wednesday in a Dumpster and the refrigerator of a man suspected in his disappearance, police said.
The ghoulish discovery of Leiby Kletzky early Wednesday morning capped a frantic two-day search for the child.
"This is a horrendous crime," Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said of the random attack.
The Orthodox Jewish boy's apparent body parts - including his severed feet - were in the refrigerator of a man who lives in a third-floor attic apartment on E. Second St. in Kensington, one of the sources said.
Other pieces of the boy were found in a red suitcase wrapped in a black plastic garbage bag in a Dumpster on 20th St. in Greenwood Heights, between Fourth and Fifth Aves., said the NYPD's top spokesman Paul Browne.
Levi Aron was taken into custody at 2:40 a.m. on his 35th birthday at the apartment he shared with his parents. He made statements implicating himself in Leiby's death, Kelly said. Charges against him are pending.
