Police were called to a New Springville apartment on Elmwood Park Drive at 11:10 a.m. for reports of an unconscious person.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Officers arrived to find the teen unresponsive in the home\u2019s living room, cops and sources said. He was declared dead at the scene, according to the NYPD. <\/p>\n

The victim\u2019s body was cold and had protruding ribs. He also had swelling and bruising around his wrists and ankles \u2014 as well as signs consistent with malnourishment, sources familiar with the investigation said.<\/p>\n

The teen\u2019s mother, who placed the 911 call, provided first responders with a narrative that sources said was inconsistent with the physical findings at the scene.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Neighbors at the apartment building told The Post they never saw the 19-year-old or even knew he existed. <\/p>\n

First-floor resident Anthony Tedesco, 40, said he only ever saw an adult man who lived in the apartment where the teen died. <\/p>\n

He said he saw the man Tuesday when cops were at the building and he had told him his son had died. <\/p>\n

\u201cI didn\u2019t even know he had a son,\u201d Tedesco said. <\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

The investigation into the teen\u2019s death remains ongoing. Crime scene investigators brought out at least five brown bags of evidence Tuesday night. <\/p>\n
