NORFOLK, Va. (WAVY) — Norfolk police and fire marshals are investigating after a woman was found dead in a residence in the Oakleaf Forest public housing community Sunday.
Police said they responded to the 1700 block of Greenleaf Drive around 8:20 p.m. Sunday. The address is in the Oakleaf Forest neighborhood, which is a public housing community under the NRHA.
Police spokesman Sgt. William Pickering said the woman, later identified as 31-year-old Ariel Cherry, was found deceased inside the residence. It is being investigated as an “undetermined death.”
