CLAYTON, N.J.- Two teenage brothers have been arrested in the death of a 12-year-old New Jersey girl who was found in a recycling bin Monday night.

Police found Autumn Pasquale's body while acting on a tip from the boy's mother who was alarmed by something she read on one of their facebook pages.

Police searched the boys' home and found the bike the girl had been riding and other possessions she had with her when she disappeared.

The Pasquale's say they knew the family of the boys.

Because the brothers are 15 and 17 authorities have not made their names public.

They are expected in court for a hearing Friday.
