HUNTINGTON STATION, Long Island (WABC) -- Suffolk County Police say they have identified the body found in a suitcase in Huntington Station.
The body of Seikaya Jones, 31, was found in a wooded area next to 320 Nassau Rd. around 11:50 a.m. on Tuesday.
"She was the nicest person, so bubbly, so happy," friend Mary Waldron said. "She would've done anything for anyone, why would someone do this?"
Jones was reported missing by police back on Aug. 16, but residents on Nassau Road say there is a video circulating that was taken on Friday where Jones can be seen in a hallway.
Residents say the video shows her following a man who lives there whose apartment was searched Wednesday night.
A resident at the apartment complex told Eyewitness News that she heard a woman screaming around 3 a.m. on Sunday.
Authorities are hoping to answer key questions about the victim and find the killer, who is still at large.
The Suffolk County Medical Examiner's Office is conducting an autopsy on the victim to determine her cause of death.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Homicide Squad detectives at 631-852-6392 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-220-TIPS.
