Authorities are trying to identify the skeletal remains of a person unearthed yesterday among trash and refuse in a Borough Park hoarder’s apartment.

Cops made the grisly discovery on Monday after responding to a 911 call at 5:00 p.m. of a foul odor inside an apartment located at 4702 15th Avenue.

When they arrived, they found a 28-year-old woman living among the squalor who made statements that she wanted to harm herself.

They summoned paramedics to the scene, who took the woman to Maimonides Hospital for psychiatric evaluation.

Cops then began poking around apartment, which they described as “in disarray, filled with garbage and refuse,” and stumbled upon the skeletal remains.

The medical examiner’s office will determine the cause of death, and the investigation is ongoing.
