NORTH ATTLEBORO -- Authorities are refusing to comment on a media report that Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez has been questioned by State Police in connection to a death investigation here.
Troopers were seen escorting a woman into Hernandez’s home at about 7:35 tonight at the upscale Westford Estates development here.
SI.com, citing unnamed sources, reported earlier today that State Police had questioned Hernandez in connection with a probe into the discovery of a body on Monday night in an industrial yard in town, but he is not considered a murder suspect.
A State Police spokesman could not confirm tonight that troopers had questioned Hernandez.
The Patriots, Hernandez’s agent, the Bristol district attorney’s office, and local police all refused to comment Tuesday.
