Schenectady Police say the investigation is continuing after a child’s body was found Thursday during a search for a missing four-month-old boy. Authorities have not said whether the body is that of Rayen Puleski. 

During a press conference Monday, Schenectady Police Sergeant Matt Dearing said that due to the condition of the remains found on State Street, more testing is needed.

"With the condition that the remains were found in, that's going to extend at least some of this process a little bit." 

Police say no one is in custody.
