Investigation Continues Into 'Untimely Death' In Westport

WESTPORT, CT — The 56-year-old woman who was the subject of an untimely death investigation by Westport police this week has been identified.

Jennifer Lindstrom, of Oak Ridge Park in Westport, was unresponsive when a housekeeper discovered her at about 11 a.m. on Thursday.

Lindstrom was found at the bottom of a staircase leading to the basement, which prompted the investigation.
