PHOENIX (AP) - Police are investigating what they are calling a suspicious death after a 78-year-old woman was found dead in a Phoenix mobile home.

Officers responded to a call of a person found in a mobile home around 1:30 p.m. Wednesday.

Police said the woman was identified as Marilyn Grace Staudt and she appeared to have been dead for several days.



The mobile home had been ransacked and a man was seen leaving the house at around the same time Staudt was last seen alive, according to police.

A composite sketch of the man has been released by police as their investigation continues.
