Carpet-wrapped body found in Pittsburgh-area park


WILKINSBURG, Pa. (AP) — Allegheny County workers have found the decomposed body of a woman wrapped in a carpet in a county park just east of Pittsburgh.

The county medical examiner and homicide detectives are investigating the discovery this morning at Hunter’s Park in Wilkinsburg.

Authorities say the workers found the carpet and brought it to a building believing it contained a dead animal, but instead found the woman’s corpse.

Authorities have not released the woman’s identity or said if they can tell how she died.
