Those who live in the Garden City neighborhood say Crosson was partially undressed when she was found Tuesday morning behind the home on Alvin Street. It's still unclear how she died. Her dog was with her, alive, when she was found. A microchip in the dog helped police track down family members.

The Medical Examiner's Office is waiting for the results of more tests to determine a cause of death.
