Police are investigating whether a body that washed up in Greenpoint belongs to a 21-year-old Brooklyn man who drowned last week while partying with pals, sources said.
Cops found the body in the East River near the India Street pier at around 8:30 p.m., police said.
Law enforcement sources said that they believe it belongs to Steven Middleton, who went swimming Saturday morning after an all-night bender to celebrate a friend’s graduation.
Middleton and five others had slipped through a fence opening near the Williamsburg Bridge at 5:30 a.m. on June 26 to get to a pier with a ladder leading down to the water.
He was quickly caught in the swift current and was swept away.
Authorities will make check dental records to make a positive identification.
