Two dead on OZP sidewalks

Two people, one male and one female, were found dead in Ozone Park this past week, police said, within a day of each other.

According to authorities, on Tuesday, Nov. 14 at about 7 a.m., police responded to a 911 call at 107-01 101 Ave., within the confines of the 102nd Precinct.

Upon arrival, officers observed an unconscious and unresponsive 45-yearold man lying on the sidewalk. EMS pronounced the man dead at the scene. His identity is being withheld pending family notification, police said.

Then, on the following day at approximately 3:45 a.m., officers from the 106th Precinct discovered the body of an unidentified adult female on the sidewalk at Pitkin Avenue and 83rd Street while on patrol. The woman was unconscious, unresponsive and showed no visible signs of trauma.

EMS responded and pronounced the woman dead at the scene. Later reports said she was found with her hands above her head and naked from the waist down.

The Medical Examiner’s Office will determine the causes of death and the investigations into both are currently ongoing.
