YOUNGSTOWN — The woman found dead on her birthday inside a car that careened over a cliff on the South Side has been identified by the Mahoning County coroner as Danielle D. Daniels of Youngstown.

“Today is her 28th birthday,” her mother Lorraine Daniels, 47, of East Dewey Avenue said today. “She was going to her boyfriend’s house in Campbell after work early Sunday but didn’t show up. I don’t know what happened but I know where she’s at now.”

Coroner Dr. David Kennedy said the death is under investigation.

Police who were called to the intersection of Erie Street and East Dewey around 12:15 p.m. Wednesday found a 1999 beige Buick LeSabre lodged against a tree in the ravine.
