Woman found dead in Downtown Boise 3 days before man found dead, just blocks away
Just three days before police found a 21-year-old man dead in Downtown Boise, they found a 61-year-old woman dead near 14th Street and Grand Avenue.
The woman was found around 11:30 a.m. June 25 on the ground. She was discovered by Boise Police bike patrol officers, who called for medical assistance. The woman had been dead for an unknown amount of time. The coroner’s office identified the woman as Rose Jarvis.
“Detectives from the BPD criminal investigation division took over the crime scene and an autopsy was conducted by the Ada County Coroner’s Office,” according to police.
Detectives found no evidence of a crime and the autopsy revealed no signs of foul play, police said.
Jarvis’s death is not connected to the death of 21-year-old Nicholas Keith Olsen, of Meridian, who was found on Friday between 13th Street and 15th Street near the I-184 Connector.
Olsen’s death is under investigation but there are no obvious signs of foul play, police have said.
