Body found inside parked car in Atlantic Highlands, NJ
ATLANTIC HIGHLANDS — A woman was found dead inside a parked car on Friday morning.
A body was found in the car parked on Asbury Avenue between Navesink and Grand avenues by Atlantic Highlands police.
Officers had been called to the neighborhood not far from Route 36 around 7:45 a.m., according to acting Monmouth County Prosecutor Lori Linskey. The woman has yet to be identified and the circumstances of her death are pending an autopsy.
A resident of the neighborhood told New Jersey 101.5 that the car had Pennsylvania license plates. He also observed a person being transported from the scene in handcuffs. A spokesman for the Prosecutor's Office, however, could not disclose any additional information.
Linskey said there is no threat to residents or visitors.
The acting prosecutor asked anyone with information to call her office at 800-533-7443 or Atlantic Highlands Police at 732-291-1212.
