Floating Corpses Rise During Spring Months

 It is a stomach-churning sign of spring, as reliable as cherry blossoms or allergy attacks: reports of dead bodies rising to the surface of New York's harbor and rivers as the water warms with the season, The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday.

More of these so-called floaters are recovered from the city's waterways in April, May and June than during the rest of the year, according to Capt. Anthony J. Russo of the New York Police Department Harbor Unit.

Of the 25 bodies pulled from local waters in 2009, Russo said 10 were recovered during the spring months. Last year, when 26 floaters were recovered, half of the total surfaced in spring. This year through the end of April there had been nine bodies gathered from the harbor by city officials.
