Austin police are investigating after a body was found Monday in a grassy area near an apartment complex just north of the intersection of U.S. Highway 183 and Interstate 35. APD tells KXAN the call came in around 1:49 a.m. of a body found near the Avesta Solano apartments at 8800 North Interstate 35. A homeless person spotted the body and called police.
EMS crews tried to revive the person, who investigators say appears to be a black woman in her 20s, but they were not successful. She was pronounced dead at 2:01 a.m. The cause of death appears to be suspicious, and police are asking the public for help in identifying the woman or if they know anything about the case.
