Overview

• A city-hired survey team discovered a skull, leg bone and hip bone in brush beside a parking lot on 20th Ave. in College Point around 3:50–4:00 p.m. Monday.
• A wallet belonging to Richard “Max” Albright, a 69-year-old nurse missing since Oct. 14, 2021, was recovered with the remains, according to a police source.
• The New York City Medical Examiner’s Office says forensic anthropologists are working to make an identification and to assess the cause of death.
• Albright’s wife says police told her the remains were her husband, though the NYPD and medical examiner have not issued official confirmation.
• Albright was last seen leaving his Jackson Heights home; investigators later verified he took a bus and bought a 30‑day MetroCard that day, and his wife believes he likely suffered a medical episode rather than foul play.
