Human Pelvic Bone Found Near Brooklyn Bridge Park in Fifth Discovery Since August

Authorities believe all remains found along the East River shoreline belong to the same unidentified individual.

  • A possible human pelvic bone was discovered near Brooklyn Bridge Park on Thursday evening, marking the fifth instance of human remains found in the area since August.
  • The remains were located near Water and Dock Streets in DUMBO, close to Jane's Carousel, a popular waterfront attraction.
  • Officials from the Medical Examiner's Office believe the remains, which include a skull and other bones found earlier, belong to the same unidentified male individual.
  • Experts suggest the remains are washing up in the area due to tidal patterns along the East River shoreline.
  • The Medical Examiner's Office is utilizing advanced forensic tools, including DNA and dental analysis, to identify the individual, and has ruled out foul play so far.
