Incident at 7333 Airline December 9, 2007 - Houston police are investigating the death of a woman found at 7333 Airline about 8 a.m. on Saturday (Dec. 8). The unidentified victim, a white female, suffered blunt trauma to her head and was pronounced dead at the scene. Her identity is pending an autopsy by the Harris County Medical Examiner’s office. HPD Homicide Division Sergeants T. Hernandez, A. Carrillo and Senior Police Officers X. Avila and H. Chavez reported: The female was found lying near the Estrella Used Auto Parts Store at 7333 Airline. She was nude from the waist down and had suffered head injuries. Evidence indicates the victim was assaulted on the second floor of the business and taken to the radiator shop area on the first floor. It appears someone possibly carried her through the radiator shop to a side door and placed her body in a small ditch along a fence line on the north side of the property. Investigators questioned several male employees at the business and obtained DNA swabs from each as part of the investigation. There is no known suspect(s) at this time.
