Man riding bike discovers woman’s body in Addicks Reservoir; police calling death suspicious

HOUSTON – Houston police are investigating after a woman’s body was found in Addicks Reservoir Thursday.

HPD responded to the scene in the 11300 block of Chatterton Drive in the Spring Branch area.

Lt. Larry Crowson says the discovery was made by a man who regularly rides his bike in the area. The man rode by a pond within the reservoir area and noticed what appeared to be the body of a woman.

Officers responded after the man called police to report the incident and confirmed the body belongs to what they believe is an approximately 40-year-old woman.

Crowson said the death is being considered suspicious because there was trauma to the woman’s body.

They are waiting for a medical examiner to arrive at the scene.

Anyone with any information on this case is urged to contact HPD’s Homicide Division at 713-308-3600.
