As 1010 WINS' Mona Rivera reported, authorities did not discuss the alleged murder weapon on Thursday.
"We believe at this point that we have identified that weapon, piece of evidence that we don't want to talk about right now," a police source said.
Neighbors said the couple has two adult children.
