A 38-year-old woman was found dead yesterday in the closet of a community center in Brooklyn with a bag over her head and the New York Police (NYPD) is investigating the case as “suspicious.”
The woman was found unconscious and not breathing at the Housing Works East New York Health Center around 10:30 a.m. Monday, police said.
“We consider it suspicious,” an NYPD spokesman said of the unidentified woman’s death, without elaborating.
The City’s Medical Examiner’s Office must determine the cause and time of death. At the moment there was no more information available, reported New York Post.
