On Sunday morning, a woman in her mid-40s was found floating in the East River near Fort Totten, close to a bloodstained Mercedes. Police responded to a 911 call and confirmed her death on the scene. Notably, the car, parked about 50 yards away, had blood smears on the rear door and blood pooled on the driver's seat. As investigators began piecing together the scene, locals expressed disbelief at the violent occurrence in their quiet community, with one resident describing the scene as horrifying.
"I lived here my whole life, and never saw a crime scene here... This is terrible. A dead body lying right there next to the jogging path and the car with blood on the doors?"
"It makes no sense. This is the busiest spot anywhere around, especially on Sundays. Everybody comes here to ride their bikes, rollerblade, go for a walk with their dog."
