A body found naked and burned in Marine Park this weekend was missing 14-year-old Shaniesha Forbes, police said.
The girl was identified today, two days after a 911 caller reported finding her body on a sandy clearing next to a foot path through heavy brush in Marine Park early Sunday morning. She had been reported missing from her Brooklyn home on Friday.
No cause of death has been determined but sources said it looked like a homicide.
"She was naked," a source said. "She was burned. She was buried in the sand. It looks bad."
Forbes, a student at the Academy for Young Writers in Williambsurg, was found just over a mile from her home.
The victim was a Justin Bieber fan, according to her Facebook profile, which is plastered with pictures of the teen hearthrob.
