LAWRENCE, Ind. (WISH) — A middle-aged woman was found dead Friday morning in a bushy area outside a home in Lawrence, police said.

The woman, who had a gunshot wound, has not yet been publicly identified.

Lawrence Police Department and medics were called about 6:40 a.m. Friday to the home in the 4200 block of North Franklin Road. That’s in an area with homes and businesses just north of East 42nd Street.

Detectives also were going through the area Friday to look for surveillance video that may yield clues.
