IMPD is investigating after a woman was found dead on Indianapolis' near north side early Friday.

Around 2:15 a.m. May 24, IMPD officers responded to the area of North Meridian and East 16th streets on a report of a person down. Officers located an unresponsive 29-year-old female who was pronounced dead at the scene, a department spokesperson said.
