Police say they recovered a dead woman wrapped in a bed sheet on a Crown Heights sidewalk early Thursday morning.
The grisly discovery was made just before 2:00 a.m., according to the NYPD, in front of a Union Street apartment two blocks from the Utica Avenue 3/4/5 subway station.
Police responded to the sidewalk in front of 1635 Union Street, a multi-family apartment building near the corner of Troy Avenue, at 1:46 a.m. The unidentified woman was unconscious and unresponsive with body trauma.
A person of interest, a 32-year-old man, was taken into custody for questioning, according to police. An investigation is ongoing, and no arrests have been made.
The cause of death is still pending from the medical examiner.
