FOX ISLAND, N.Y. (CBSNewYork) Theres a mystery on Fox Island in Long Islands Great South Bay.
Across Long Islands South Shore communities, the conversation is all about the 4-foot wide, 2-foot deep crater created by an illegal explosion on an undeveloped island off Lindenhurst, accessible only by boat.

Five hundred calls poured into Babylons Public Safety Department. Social media postings of concern came from as far as Huntington, 16 miles away.

Investigators say it could have been anything from a pipe bomb to dynamite, and are not ruling out that it was a possible trial run for a future criminal act. They are imploring the public for tips.
