HAGATNA — The death of a woman in Guam is being investigated as a homicide.
The Pacific Daily News, a Guam newspaper, reports the woman died from a close-range gunshot wound to her face.
Guam’s chief medical examiner Aurelio Espinola said Monday that the 54-year-old Russian woman had no other injuries. The woman’s name was not immediately released.
Police spokesman A.J. Balajadia says officers responded to a South Santa Cruz Drive home in Agat Sunday night after receiving a report of a possible suicide.
Balajadia says the investigation was reclassified as a homicide after the autopsy.
