Halifax Regional Police are investigating the death of a woman in Dartmouth.
Police responded to a call to 3 Farthington Place, a three-storey brick apartment building in the Highland Park area, just past 4 a.m. Sunday morning and found the woman’s body. The crime unit and the forensic identification section investigated.
Police say they have not identified the woman and won’t say if her death is related to a homicide Friday afternoon in the same area. Derek Miles, 42, of Dartmouth, was found dead in a Pincecrest Drive apartment after police responded to a call of a man in distress on Friday at 4:25 p.m.
Based on an autopsy performed Saturday, the medical examiner determined that the death was a homicide.
The homicide unit was investigating.
Anyone with information on either incident is asked to call police at 902-490-5020 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
