Homicide detectives are investigating after a woman’s body was found in a planter in southeast Las Vegas.
The body was found Thursday around 9:15 a.m. near South Nellis Boulevard and East Harmon Avenue, according to a statement Saturday from the Metropolitan Police Department.
Detectives said there were no immediate signs of foul play, but the coroner later ruled that the woman was the victim of a homicide, Metro said.
The woman’s name will be released by the Clark County coroner’s office after her family is notified.
