The postal worker told police they had seen the woman in the same location in her yard two days prior, had asked if she was OK and if she needed help, but the woman reportedly declined and said she was OK.

On Monday, the same postal worker said the woman was still on the ground in the same clothes she was wearing on Saturday.

Police said no one was at the house when her body was discovered and she was also alone on Saturday when the postal worker first saw her.

According to La Marque Deputy Police Chief Chad Waggoner, an investigation is underway, though it’s unclear at this time how she died. No foul play is suspected. The woman’s identity has not been released.
