Lt. Larry Crowson says the discovery was made by a man who regularly rides his bike in the area. The man rode by a pond within the reservoir area and noticed what appeared to be the body of a woman.
Officers responded after the man called police to report the incident and confirmed the body belongs to what they believe is an approximately 40-year-old woman.
Crowson said the death is being considered suspicious because there was trauma to the woman’s body.
They are waiting for a medical examiner to arrive at the scene.
Anyone with any information on this case is urged to contact HPD’s Homicide Division at 713-308-3600.
