POMONA, CA — A homeless woman's body was identified Wednesday, after being found last week near the railroad tracks in Pomona.

The woman's body was found about 1:45 p.m. Friday in the 3300 block of West Temple Avenue, according to Pomona Police Department Sgt. Brian Hagerty.

She was identified as Leslie Olivera, 37, the Los Angeles County coroner's office reported. No foul play was suspected in the death, police said.
