New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez has been accused of being directly tied to the murder death of 27-year-old Odin Lloyd, whose body was found less than a mile away from Hernandez' home.

According to NESN, sources say that Hernandez was spotted at a bar in Boston with Lloyd and two other men on the night of the murder, and that all four men left the location together in a car driven by Hernandez, which Lloyd reportedly confirmed in a text to a friend.

The source said only three men returned to Hernandez's home at the end of the night and Lloyd was not one of them."

Forensic evidence was found that links the car to one of the crime scenes, but to which crime scene has still have yet to be specified.

Hernandez has "not been ruled out" as a suspect in the case, according to reports, while his interactions with the police have been described as "uncooperative."

Hernandez returned home Wednesday afternoon, declining to speak to media members.

"It has been widely reported in the media that the state police have searched the home of our client, Aaron Hernandez, as part of an ongoing investigation," read a statement from Michael Fee, an attorney at Ropes & Gray. "Out of respect for that process, neither we nor Aaron will have any comment about the substance of that investigation until it has come to a conclusion."

Police are asking for the public's help in locating a silver mirror cover believed to have been broken off a vehicle and might be visible along a route of travel between Dorchester, where Lloyd was from, and North Attleborough.
