A 55-year-old man was tragically discovered deceased in a Queens apartment, his body partially concealed in garbage bags. Authorities are investigating the circumstances surrounding his death and questioning two individuals of interest.
A 55-year-old man was found dead under a bed in a Queens apartment, his body partially concealed in garbage bags, authorities said Wednesday. Fire officials responded to a 911 call about a body located on 70th Avenue, between 137th Street and 141st Street, after 5 p.m. Tuesday. Upon arrival, they discovered the deceased individual on the lower level of the two-story building. The medical examiner is currently working to determine the cause of death.
Two individuals of interest are being questioned in connection with the case, but details about their identities remain unclear as of Wednesday evening. It is believed that the two recently moved into the building, though their potential connection to the investigation is yet to be established. Detectives spent a day interviewing neighbors and searching the surrounding area for surveillance footage. According to police sources who spoke to NBC New York, investigators are exploring the possibility that the building superintendent entered the apartment and never emerged. Building management issued a note to tenants informing them that new staff would be handling all maintenance requests moving forward
