Police discovered a body in the waters near Bay Eighth Street and Shore Parkway on Thursday morning.

According to authorities, cops responded to a 911 call at about 9:48 a.m. of a male in the water within the confines of the 62nd Precinct. Upon arrival, officers observed an unidentified male unconscious and unresponsive along the shoreline.

NYPD Harbor personnel responded and removed the body from the water, after which emergency medical services on scene pronounced the man dead.

The Medical Examiner will determine the cause of death.

The investigation is ongoing.
