Rochester Police say there was “some sort of obvious trauma” to the body of a woman found late Monday night outside the rear of 405 Lyell Avenue, near the corner of Whitney Street.
Police say it was the body of an adult woman. They’re waiting for a ruling from the Monroe County Medical Examiner of cause of death, but are investigating the case as a homicide.
They say they’re still working to identify the victim and make sure next of kin are notified.
