More human remains found on shoreline by Brooklyn Bridge Park carousel
NEW YORK — More human remains have been discovered along the shoreline near the Brooklyn Bridge Park carousel early Wednesday, police said.
Cops were called back to the popular park in the Dumbo neighborhood of Brooklyn at about 12:30 a.m. after “an apparent human bone” was found among the waterfront rocks near Water and Dock streets, police said.
The discovery was made near the spot where a skull and other human bones were found Monday morning.
NYPD officers called the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner, who sent a team to remove the newly found remains.
An anthropologist from the ME’s office will determine if the remains discovered are connected to the ones found on Monday and the age, race, and gender of the person who died.
The grisly discovery was made just feet from Jane’s Carousel — built in 1922 and donated to the park in 2011 after years of restoration — and not far from the building housing the Time Out Market.
