Body found by the Van Wyck

A man relieving himself in a wooded marsh area near the Van Wyck Expressway in Queens made a grisly discovery — a woman’s body, police sources said.

The man was walking through the brush at about 9:25 p.m. Friday near South Conduit Avenue in South Jamaica when he spotted the corpse less than 50 feet from the highway, cops said.

The body was nude and badly decomposed, sources said, and was lying face up.

Police found no identification on the body of the woman believed to have been in her 30s.

The medical examiner began conducting an autopsy yesterday, and police are waiting for the results to determine whether a homicide had been committed.

Cops are asking tipsters to call Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS.
