Yazmeen Williams was the NYC woman in the sleeping bag.
Police received reports of a suspicious package with a foul smell outside a building in Kips Bay and made the grisly discovery around 5 p.m. FridayThough he's not charged with murder in this case at this time, the man does have a history of an arrest on a murder charge -- in 1994, when he allegedly blew up a house as his uncle walked inside, investigators said.
Video and photos shared on social media show what appears to be a full-sized body covered in a dark sleeping bag that was further wrapped in black trash bags. Sources told NBC New York that surveillance video appeared to show a person in an electric wheelchair pulling the sleeping bag in tow.Police said a man in his 50s was arrested in connection with the incident. Crowds tried to give him a dose of street justice.
"He’s disgusting… he looks like scum," said Williams."They were angry. He ... took her life away ... threw my daughter in a garbage bag."
