Tips Sought In Death Of Young Detroit Mother
DETROIT (WWJ) - Authorities are seeking tips from the public in the investigation into the death of Dynasty Myles, whose body was found in a vacant Detroit home.
Police say the 23-year-old's body was found Feb. 5 at an abandoned home on Log Cabin near the Lodge Freeway on the city's west side.
Evidence collected at the scene by police suggest Myles was dragged into the home against her will, but officials are not saying how long her body had been there.
An exact cause of death has yet to be determined, but police are treating the case as a homicide.
Myles, who has a young daughter, had been missing since New Year's Day. She was last reported seen around 10 p.m. at Benihana at the Fairlane Town Center in Dearborn.
