A passer-by discovered the body of a woman by the shore in the Roxbury section of the Rockaways yesterday morning, police said.
The corpse had apparently washed up near Bayside Avenue shortly before 8:40 a.m.
The body was clothed but badly decomposed.
The medical examiner will determine the cause of death, cops said.
Detectives were investigating if she was the person who had been reported missing from the Jamaica section of the borough in December.
“I’ve seen bodies before, but I’ve never seen anything like this before,” said Max Francis, 22, a firefighter.
“The body was so decomposed.”
Another witness reported that the body had long black hair and, gruesomely, looked to have been crushed flat.
