Investigators believe the woman's death was not an accident or self-inflicted. However, they have not been able to identify the woman.
They said she may have had Hispanic, Latin American or Middle Eastern heritage. She stood 5-foot tall and weighed around 175 pounds. She was wearing blue jeans, a gray shirt and a pearl necklace. Investigators also found an earring in the area and believe it may have belonged to the woman.
