Authorities Tuesday were investigating what they called the “suspicious” death of a 23-year-old woman found in a Palmdale motel room.
Detectives were sent about 8:20 a.m. to the motel in the 200 block of West Palmdale Boulevard, near the Antelope Valley (14) Freeway, for a report of an unresponsive woman, according to Deputy Trina Schrader of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.
The woman was pronounced dead at the scene, Schrader said.
The coroner’s office will determine the cause of death, according to Schrader, but information was not released regarding why the death was classified as suspicious.
Anyone with information on the woman’s death was urged to call the Sheriff’s Homicide Bureau at 323-890-5500, or Crime Stoppers at 800-222-TIPS.
