State police in Vermont are investigating after a woman was found dead on a popular trail in Castleton.
The Vermont State Police called the death "suspicious" in a news release and said that they received a call about a deceased woman on the Delaware and Hudson Rail Trail on Thursday afternoon. Police arrived around 4:30 p.m., where they found the unidentified woman dead. Her cause of death will be determined by an autopsy, police said.
A witness said that they heard gunshots and saw a "possible suspect" walking northbound on the trail, police said.
An American Airlines jet with 60 passengers and four crew members aboard collided with an Army helicopter Wednesday night while coming in for a landing at Ronald Reagan National Airport near Washington. The Black Hawk helicopter was carrying a crew of three. Officials said early Thursday that everyone on board both aircraft is believed dead, which would make it the deadliest U.S. air crash in nearly a quarter century.
