BOSTON (CBS) – The person found stabbed to death on Constitution Beach Monday morning has been identified as 15-year-old Wilson Martinez of East Boston.

Investigators are asking for the public's help. "No piece of information is too small to be helpful," Conley said Tuesday. "Every piece of evidence, no matter how peripheral it may seem, is important."

Anyone with information on Martinez's death is urged to contact detectives at 617-727-8817.
