Details from My Ballard:
A woman walking her dog at Golden Gardens Park this morning discovered a body face down the sand, Seattle Police say. Officers and medics responded shortly after 10 a.m. Police tell us the cause of death is “suspicious”—she’s a 34-year-old woman, and her ID was located nearby. The homicide unit and the medical examiner subsequently responded to the scene.
“The whole Meadow Point area (even into the water) is currently cordoned off with crime scene investigation tape,” says My Ballard reader Dan, who first tipped us on the story. “There were no less than fifteen marked and unmarked SPD vehicles (there).” Police say homicide detectives are sweeping the area for clues, and they’ll be awaiting the determination from the medical examiner on the cause of death.
As Slog tipper inky says in comments over here, “shitty day in ballard.”
