Crime scene tape envelops several units as investigators from Lakewood Police, the Ocean County Sheriff's Office and the Ocean County Prosecutor's Office go door-to-door seeking information that can help their probe.

Neighbors say that the unidentified woman's adult daughter called township police to the Chatham Court dwelling.

A car was hooked to a tow truck and driven away. There's been no indication as to whether it is directly involved in the investigation.

A spokesman for the Ocean County Prosecutor's Office declined comment at this early stage of the probe.
