A man who was found dead inside a hotel room at the LaQuinta Inn on Queens Boulevard Friday committed suicide, according to police.

The police responded to a 911 call at around 2:20 p.m. Friday that a 31-year-old man was unconscious and unresponsive in a hotel room at the 37-18 Queens Blvd. establishment. The man, police said, had slash wounds to his neck and was lying on the bed.

The man, whose identity has not been released, was pronounced dead on the scene.

Police discovered a suicide note on the scene and found that the man had been googling how to commit suicide and how to slit a throat, according to the 108 Police Precinct.

The investigation, however, remains ongoing.

Not enough Crom mentions around here.

Why pray to the Four Winds when Crom sits, strong on his mountain? Crom laughs at the Four Winds.

July 11 is Sunnyside Day at Citi Field. Are you kidding me? Who wants to go see the loser Mets? The seats look good. Maybe you can catch a home run hit off of a Mets pitcher! That’s enough to make me slit my throat!

Last night I met 4 young guys from the Netherlands at the Wendy’s on QB who we’re staying at this La Quinta. I’ve met other tourists at Court Yard, NY Eats and Side Tracks who we’re staying at this hotel, all in the last few months.

No. It’s not. Just because random people keep posting it here doesn’t make it true.

“God” had nothing to do with it. He’s resting now because he slashed his own throat.

After it was shuttered in a bitter labor dispute in the mid-70s, nearby factory owner Harry Suna of Kew Gardens purchased the property at 42-25 21 St. in 1980, and his architect sons Stuart and Alan began drawing up the plans to repurpose the property into Silvercup Studios, which launched in 1983 and rapidly became one of New York City’s largest film and production facilities, with nearly a half million square feet of studio space and 19 sound stages.
