A human leg bone was found inside the closet wall of a newly purchased home in an upscale Queens neighborhood on Wednesday night, police sources said.
The shocking discovery was made just before midnight by the homeowner at a residence on Edgerton Boulevard near Henley Road in Jamaica Estates, according to police sources.
The man called 911 to report the grisly find, telling the operator he had moved into the home less than two months ago, sources said.
Police responded and the bone was handed off to the city Medical Examiner’s office.
The ME’s office determined on Thursday that the bone is a human fibula, according to police.
Police did not immediately release further information.
When reached Thursday night, the homeowner declined to comment, citing the ongoing investigation.
