It’s a very busy area with shops and business so I’m assuming the way she was found has something to do with there being 30 police present. May she RIP

Sure sounds like they think its more then someone who has simply passed away of natural causes.

Very tragic. I can’t believe how many dead bodies have been discovered lately. What is the world coming too?

It states at a property. Unless you know the area, how do we know if it is indoors or outdoors, a home or a business? If it was indoors there is big chance nobody saw anything and may not have heard anything either. If the Police know the lady’s age, they probably know the identity of the victim. No doubt it will be released her relatives, employer if there is one.

odd in the middle of the day. But so far it only seems to be police? So, at least no one is hurt?
