Quote:Two people were caught on surveillance footage pulling up to the First Haitian Baptist Church in Brooklyn’s Canarsie neighborhood around 1:30 a.m. on Friday, removing a large bag from the trunk of a car containing a body, and leaving it on the curb before driving away.
The video shows a person removing the bag from the open trunk of a light-colored sedan, placing it along the curb, and adjusting it before getting back in the car and leaving.

The bag sat unattended for roughly eight hours.

Around 9:20 a.m., a man known in the area for collecting scrap metal loaded it onto a hand truck, wheeled it about a block toward East 93rd Street, opened it outside a vacant former movie theater, and discovered the remains mixed in with scrap metal and wires.

WATCH:

The man flagged down sanitation workers, who called 911.

Officers arrived and pronounced the man dead at the scene.

Police believe the victim is a man in his 50s or 60s.

Gothamist reported that police officials said the man’s body was badly decomposed.

The victim’s name or suspected cause of death has not been released.

Police have not publicly named the suspects, and they remain at large.

Probably a trio of illegals that were out and about one night stealing wiring and one got electrocuted, then they sat on the body trying to figure out what to do with it... dump it on the sidewalk seemed like the best choice, I guess.

Authorities fish out dead bodies from the bayous near downtown Houston all the time. Lost count of how many they have fished out.

Way too many. It's ridiculous how many they fish out of there.
