Two bodies found off Rockaways near where teenage swimmers disappeared

Police have discovered two bodies in the waters off the Rockaways, not far from where two teenage swimmers disappeared under the waves just over a week ago.

Cops found one body off Beach 114th St. and the Ocean Promenade at about 9 p.m. Saturday, and a second about two miles away off Jacob Riis Park at 10:45 a.m. Sunday, police said.

An NYPD spokesman described the bodies as male, but provided no information about their age or identity, or how long they were in the water.

The grim discoveries came eight days after Christian Perkins, 17, vanished in the waters off Jacob Riis Park alongside 16-year-old Elyjha Chandler on June 21.

On Sunday, Elyjha’s father and other family gathered along Jacob Riis Beach, about two miles away, as police investigated the scene.
