New York City police are investigating after human remains were found on the highway in Queens Saturday, causing extended closures of several expressway lanes, Fox News has confirmed.
Upon arrival, officers observed an unconscious and unresponsive male at the location with "severe body trauma," an NYPD spokeswoman confirmed to Fox News Digital. EMS responded and pronounced the victim deceased at the scene. No arrests have been made by Sunday early afternoon.
The deceased individual is unidentified at this time, the spokeswoman said when contacted Sunday. The investigation is ongoing by the NYPD Collision Investigation Squad. Few details have been confirmed about the incident – including how long the remains were believed to be in the roadway, as police were called to the scene in broad daylight.
