6 months later, search continues for LI man accused of killing his dad

|

Suffolk police say the investigation remains active into the killing of a Rocky Point man exactly six months ago, with the suspect still at large.

Matthew Zoll is wanted in connection with the Nov. 9 fatal stabbing of his father, Joseph Zoll, who was found with multiple stab wounds at their home on Quail Road in Rocky Point.

Zoll, 23 at the time, then crashed a black GMC Yukon SUV at the intersection of 25A and the William Floyd Parkway in Shoreham at about 1:35 a.m. and was injured, police said. Officers and K-9 units searched the area but were unable to locate him.

Detectives on Friday, May 9, said the investigation is ongoing.

Anyone with information on Zoll’s whereabouts is asked to contact Suffolk County Crime Stoppers anonymously at 1-800-220-TIPS.

Zoll is described as white, 6 feet 1 inch tall, 150 pounds, with brown hair, brown eyes and a scar under his left eye. According to a November report by the New York Post, Zoll has schizophrenia and had previously gone missing after discontinuing his medication.

Joseph Zoll was a U.S.P.S. carrier in Riverhead since 2014. He previously worked for the Metropolitan Transportation Authority. He has three other children — a son and two daughters, according to prior Greater Long Island reports.

Suffolk police released this flyer in November, looking for the public’s help in locating Matthew Zoll.
