Missing NN woman found dead in Maine
DAYTON, Maine (WAVY) — A 23-year-old Newport News woman who had gone missing in Maine was found dead inside a parked car Monday afternoon, Maine State Police said.
Autumn Cleveland, 23, was found inside a parked car near the Goodwins Mills Road in Dayton, Maine, about 25 miles southwest of Portland, Maine, State Police said. The woman matched the description of a missing person out of Newport News.
Maine State Police said a 911 call came in around 3:27 p.m. reporting that a woman who was dead was found.
The Maine State Police Major Crimes Unit South responded and has started an investigation into the incident.
Maine State Police said there is no danger to the public, and Cleveland’s death remains under investigation pending an autopsy to determine the cause and manner of death.
A news report from the Portland Press Herald in Maine, citing Facebook posts from family members, said Cleveland had been staying in a rental home in Maine for the weekend and had not been in touch with her family since last Saturday evening. Information from the Virginia State Police’s missing person’s page online said she had last been seen Aug. 31 in Newport News.
The report said she had been last seen driving a blue 2018 Mazda CX5 with Washington state plates in southern Maine, and authorities confirmed she was found in the same vehicle.
