TAYLORSVILLE, Utah (AP) — Police have identified the victim of a Taylorsville murder as a 59-year-old woman.

Unified Police identified her as Margaret Steffey on Thursday, a day after she was found dead in her house when officials were called to check on her. She lived alone.

Officials say an autopsy indicates she was suffocated but it's not clear how.

Authorities say they don't have any suspect yet and are asking members of the public to share any information they might have.

Investigators found no sign of a forced entry.
