WASHINGTON 鈥� A body found in the driveway of an abandoned house in Northeast D.C. may be that of a woman who was reported missing the day after Thanksgiving, D.C. police Chief Peter 海角社区appham said Tuesday.
海角社区appham said police are investigating it as a “very suspicious death.”
海角社区appham said officers were called to a house in the 300 block of 34th Street Northeast shortly after 8:30 a.m. Tuesday after a neighbor called police.
海角社区appham said the body was discovered in a driveway in the rear of an unoccupied house.
“We’re going to work very quickly to try and identify the victim here,” 海角社区appham said. “We have a strong belief that it could possibly the person who was reported missing.”
If it is, “It’s very sad for her family to lose somebody over the holiday season,” 海角社区appham said.
An autopsy will determine the cause of death, and police will see if any surveillance cameras in the neighborhood recorded anything that could be used as evidence. 海角社区appham asked anyone who may have information about the woman’s death to call D.C. police at 202-727-9099.
