Overview
- Houston police opened an investigation Wednesday morning after a woman's body was found along Brays Bayou near MacGregor Park.
- Officers were dispatched around 10:40 a.m., and Houston Fire Department crews arrived near Martin Luther King Boulevard to support recovery efforts.
- HPD homicide detectives are leading the case, with a dive team called in because the body was reported submerged.
- Officials have not released the woman's identity or the cause of death, and investigators remained on scene into the afternoon.
- The earlier search on May 1 covered about seven miles after witnesses saw a woman carried off by strong currents, and police have not confirmed any link to that case despite an HFD captain telling the Chronicle the timing and location make a connection a strong possibility.
