Rochester, MN (KROC AM News) - Rochester police officers were sent out Thursday yesterday to check on what was thought to be an abandoned townhome. Instead, they discovered the body of a woman who apparently died a couple months ago.

A spokesman says the 59-year-old woman was found in a bathroom after officers entered the residence in the 10 block of Elton Ridge Court Northwest at the request of the townhome association for the property. The officers also found a dog that had died in the townhome.

The cause of the woman’s death has not been determined, but police do not suspect foul play.
