Man’s body found on rocks at Brooklyn park: NYPD

A man’s body was found on the rocky shoreline of a Brooklyn park Saturday morning, police said.

Authorities were notified when a 911 caller reported seeing the body near Bay 44th Street and Shore Parkway in Calvert Vaux Park around 9:30 a.m., according to cops. 

The man was unresponsive when EMS arrived to the Gravesend park and there were no obvious signs of trauma, cops said.
