Police say officers found a 61-year-old man dead inside his car Sunday morning in Williamsburg, near the corner of Broadway and Lynch Street.

The NYPD says it received a call that someone was unconscious around 10:45 a.m.

A video of the scene posted on social media and reviewed by News 12 shows officers pulling a man dressed in all black out of a black Chevrolet sedan parked next to a dumpster at the BP Gas Station. He was then covered and loaded on to a stretcher.

Police did not release any information about the man or how long he might have been in the car.

The area is busy, with both the Broadway and Lorimer Street subway stations nearby, along with plenty of cameras on both the gas station and the apartment building across the street.
