NEW YORK (1010 WINS) -- Police identified a Brooklyn woman whose remains were found in a Queens backyard last summer, saying she was a homicide victim in a case that has so far netted no arrests.

The NYPD released an image Thursday of Gloria Lee, 54, whose skull and other remains were found behind a vacant home on Pinegrove Street, near 109th Avenue, in Jamaica on the morning of July 26, 2021.
The medical examiner has since ruled Lee’s death a homicide, police said as they sought the public’s help in finding her killer. An autopsy found she had died from "homicidal violence of undetermined type," according to the Daily News.
Lee was from Flatbush and reportedly had no known connection to the house in Jamaica. She was last seen leaving her home on the morning of May 28, 2021.
The home has been under a vacate order from the city Department of Buildings since 2019, and it’s unclear how long Lee’s remains were in the yard before they were discovered, WNBC reported.
Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS.
