Sources confirmed to Local 6 News Tuesday that FBI agents are helping Daytona Beach authorities profile the person or persons involved in the slayings of three women in three months.

The city's most recent homicide was 35-year-old Iwana Patton from Holly Hill, whose body was found over the weekend in some woods near Williamson Boulevard and Mason Avenue.

An anonymous caller led police to Patton's body but refused to give any other information to the dispatcher.

Julie Green and Laquetta Gunther were killed in December.

"Investigators are keeping a lot of the information in reference to the crime scene as well as the victims very close to the chest right now as they investigate to see if there is any new information we can get," Daytona Beach police spokesman Al Tolley said.

Local 6 reported that detectives said they are investigating the differences and similarities in the women's deaths.

"Many fear it is the work of a serial killer," Local 6 reporter Tarik Minor said.

"We are worried about it a lot," resident Cindy Honeycutt said.

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement is also involved in the investigation.

If you have any information concerning these crimes, you are urged to call Crimeline at (800) 423-TIPS.
