MARIETTA, Ga. — Police have identified a woman who was found dead in a parked car in Marietta early Tuesday morning.
Cobb County Police said officers discovered the body of 36-year-old Ericka Stewart in a Nissan Altima parked next to the Caswyck Trail Apartments on Favor Road SW around 7 a.m.
They said they don't know how long her body had been there.

Investigators also removed an entire dumpster near the car to be processed for potential evidence. A search warrant was also obtained for an apartment in the complex, but it is unclear right now how it is connected to the woman's death.
