A state police dive team continues to search Cayuga Lake Friday.

They've been looking for a weapon that may have been dumped near the shore of the lake inlet off Route-69 in Ithaca.

Troopers say the FBI, Ithaca Police and Cornell police are all involved in the investigation.

They're not saying what case it relates to, except that it was in the news recently.

Just last month, a former Cornell student was caught in a massive weapons raid.

State Police will not say if the weapon is linked to that case, but they do say that the information that led to the search, came from a series of interviews that were conducted as part of an investigation.
