Unidentified skeleton found on Jamaica Bay island








Skeletal remains that appear to belong to a teenage girl were discovered on an uninhabited island in Jamaica Bay, authorities said.

A boater passing the Canarsie Pol, across from Canarsie Pier around 4:45 p.m., Tuesday spotted the bones and notified police, sources said.

Fog, darkness and choppy waters prevented the NYPD Harbor Patrol from investigating the find on the marshland until yesterday, police said.

The Medical Examiner’s Office has not identified the remains but sources said at least one document belonging to a girl who has been missing since last year was found nearby, sources said.



It wasn’t immediately clear whether the person suffered any trauma and investigators are still trying to determine a cause of death.
