Seward County Sheriff Bill McBryde says an autopsy performed Monday showed no signs of trauma. But authorities are treating the case as a homicide as they wait on a toxicology report.
McBryde said the woman's last known contact was with her roommate at 3 a.m. Her body was found outside her home slightly more than five hours later.
