According to the Tipp City Police Department, 37-year-old Ashley Flynn was found dead following a reported burglary at a home in Tipp City, Ohio, and investigators are continuing to search for a suspect.

On Monday, officers were dispatched at about 2:30 a.m. to the 900 block of Cunningham Court on a report of a burglary in progress involving a resident who had been shot, the department said. When officers arrived, they met with Flynn’s husband and two children inside the residence. The woman was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.
