The death of a woman found inside a Mountain View home earlier this week is now being investigated as a homicide, the Anchorage Police Department said.
Officers were called to the 700 block of North Flower Street just after 8:15 a.m. Wednesday because a woman was dead in the home, police said.
“Officers made observations that have prompted them to take a closer look at the circumstances surrounding the death,” police wrote in aWednesday. The next day, the department posted an update saying her death was being investigated as a homicide. Police have released few details about the woman’s death. Department spokeswoman Cherie Zajdzinski did not answer questions Friday about how the woman died or what circumstances prompted officers to take a closer look, citing an ongoing investigation.
The Anchorage Police Department also isn’t publicly identifying the woman for now, a decision that Zajdzinski said was made “to protect the integrity of the investigation.” Police have notified the woman’s next of kin about her death, according to Zajdzinski.
