The body of the woman — identified by family as Yazmeen Williams — was found stuffed inside a sleeping bag and left among several black trash bags placed on the sidewalk for garbage collection outside 207 E. 27th St. around 5 p.m. Friday, cops said.
Cops confirmed Monday that she was shot in the head and her death was ruled a homicide.
“[Officers] said, ‘Are you Yazmeen Williams’ mother?’” Yazmeen’s mother, Nicole Williams, told The Post at her apartment building. “And I said, ‘Yes I’m Nicole Williams. I’m her mother.’ And they said, ‘Your daughter has been shot.’
“And I said, ‘OK, and she’s going to be all right?’ And they said no, that she died,” the grief-stricken mom said as she collapsed in tears. “They said she’s dead. I fainted and the officer had to pick me up off the floor.”
“She’s my baby!” Williams added. “We got to get justice for her!”
“She didn’t deserve what happened to her!”
A man was seen pulling the makeshift body bag on an electric wheelchair before the sack was discovered, law enforcement sources said.
