Lynnwood police detectives are investigating the death of a 47-year-old Mountlake Terrace woman who was found in a parking lot in the 19400 block of Highway 99 this morning.

An employee of the business found the body around 10:30 a.m. after they had opened. Medics were called to the scene and discovered that she had been deceased for some time.

The circumstances surrounding her death are still under investigation but police say it doesn’t appear to be suspicious. An autopsy is scheduled for tomorrow.
