Woman’s Body Found

A woman was found dead Thursday afternoon on an embankment off upper Whalley Avenue.

Firefighters responded to the embankment off Whalley Avenue and West Prospect Avenue near Ernie’s Pizzeria shortly after 2 p.m. They found a woman on the ground who may have fallen off a wall.

A fire lieutenant had an AMR ambulance medic check the woman with a monitor, at which point the woman was declared dead.

Police were on scene as well and have taken over the investigation.

At this point police don’t know why she died, according to police spokeswoman Shayna Kendall.

It does appear to be an isolated incident,” Kendall said. She estimated the victim’s age to be the mid 30s.
