A shellshocked bystander spotted the body of a woman floating in a pond at a typically quiet Queens park Sunday.
The witness called 911 just after 6 p.m., reporting an unconscious woman in the kettle pond at Bowne Park in Flushing, police said.
When cops arrived on scene, they found a woman’s body bobbing in the water near a fountain.
Two emergency responders gingerly dredged the woman’s corpse from pond and laid her body on the grass as horrified park-goers looked on.
Her body was mostly covered by a white tarp, but The Post observed one grayish, wrinkled foot poking out.
A local who arrived at the park for her daily dog walk around the same time as the police response called the ordeal “unsettling” in what is normally a peaceful respite from the city.
“I find [the park] a safe place to be, so I don’t think it was anything from violence,” she said while vaguely gesturing to the pond where the woman’s body was.
The NYPD said a medical examiner is working on determining the cause of death. The woman’s identity has not been released and the investigation is ongoing.
Bowne Park hosted a community clean-up event and silent disco party on Saturday evening, according to its website.
