Police say they discovered the body of a Black woman in her 30s after responding to a disturbance call at a New Rochelle apartment building on Saturday morning.

Detectives say the discovery was made at a unit at 55 Clinton Place around 10:15 a.m.

The official cause of the woman's death had not been released as of Saturday night, although authorities said they are investigating the case as a "suspicious death."

Tenants in the high rise called the grim discovery "frightening."

"I thought when I lived here it would be a pretty safe area, but I guess not," one resident told News 12. "My neighbor lives right next to the unit where it happened. I guess that unit has been going through some issues."
