Drain Pond to Find Head in Providence Case
The Manville Pond is being drained tonight to locate the missing head of a woman whose body was pulled from the pond Tuesday.

Medical examiners note the decapitation appears crude, while a surgeon’s glove and fingernail box were found near the body, though officials see no connection to the hand remains found in the river.
