SOUTH PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- Cadaver dogs led police to believe someone might have buried a body in South Philadelphia.

The CSI unit brought in a backhoe Thursday night to dig up an area around the 1500 block of South Bambrey Street.

The dogs reportedly picked up a scent at the location.

So far, the search has come up empty.

Authorities said it's possible there was a body there at one point and it's been relocated.
