DELRAY BEACH, Fla. – Police in South Florida are trying to unravel the mystery of two young children found dead in a canal, their bodies stuffed into luggage.

The bodies found Wednesday don’t match the description of any children known to be missing, and police implored the public for help identifying them.

“Someone is missing these kids,” said Delray Beach Police spokeswoman Nicole Guerriero. “There’s a teacher. There’s a grandmother. There’s an aunt and uncle, a friend, someone has not seen these kids.”

Divers from three agencies used sonar and a remote-controlled submarine to scour the canal for clues Thursday.
