Detectives in Brooklyn are still on the hunt for the suspect who murdered and chopped up a man whose body parts were discovered inside a trash receptacle at an apartment building on Friday morning.
Police said the grim find was made inside a garbage disposal bin at 569 East 21st St. in Flatbush just before 9:15 a.m. on Oct. 17.
Officers from the 70th Precinct responded to a 911 call about the incident and examined the remains, which were confined within a garbage bag. The remains were a man's head and torso, according to published reports.
An official police report said the male had suffered trauma to the body. How the victim died is unknown; the remains were transferred to the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner, which will conduct an autopsy to determine the exact cause of death.
