JEFFERSON COUNTY, Colo. — A woman was found dead after crews responded to a fire early Monday and it’s being investigated as a homicide, the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office said.

The incident happened about 1:30 a.m. near West Colfax Avenue and Nile Street in an industrial area west of Interstate 70.

When crews from the Pleasant View Fire Department arrived, they discovered the body outside on the ground.
