A woman was found dead Friday inside an apartment on San Antonio’s Northeast Side, turning a quiet complex into an active crime scene while detectives worked to piece together what happened. Police quickly locked down the area around the unit and began combing through the apartment for evidence.
The woman was discovered inside a unit at the Costa Biscaya apartments in the 5100 block of Eisenhauer Road, according to KENS5. A man was later detained for questioning in the 7200 block of Montgomery, an SAPD sergeant told the outlet.
Investigation ongoing
San Antonio police said the investigation is still in its early stages as detectives collect evidence and track down leads. Officials have not released the woman’s name or the suspected cause of death while the case remains open.
Neighborhood context
The Eisenhauer corridor has seen violence before. In 2020, a woman with serious head trauma was found at an apartment in the 5200 block of Eisenhauer Road, as reported by MySA. Concerns about safety along this busy Northeast Side stretch have surfaced in past investigations.
What to expect next
As crime scene investigators continue their work, police are asking anyone with information to contact the San Antonio Police Department, according to KENS5. No charges had been announced as of Friday, and SAPD officials say the probe remains active.
