The discovery might have been uniforms, but the theories about it are all over the map.
New York City police are investigating just how a box full of NYPD blues showed up abandoned this week near a cemetery in Brooklyn, according to the New York Daily News.
The fact that it occurred only days before the infamously anti-police Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani was sworn in only added fuel to the fire.
According to the newspaper, the box was reported by a 911 caller about 8:40 p.m. Tuesday.
Video posted to social media showed police officers combing through the clothing, which was eventually moved to the 66th Precinct station for safety, the New York Daily News reported.
Authorities are trying to establish just how the unusual find came about, but that didn’t stop online speculation.
Some users of the social media platform X suggested it was a sign of upcoming resignations from police who don’t want to serve under a Mamdani administration.
