ANNE ARUNDEL COUNTY, Md. — Anne Arundel County Police are investigating after a dead body was found on the ground in the area of Disney Avenue and Alley 79 in Brooklyn Park.
Police say the body belonged to a woman, with apparent trauma to her body.
The woman, who was later identified as 44-year-old Sarah Bundy, has been transported to the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner in Baltimore for an autopsy.
Hear neighbors react after a woman was found dead in Brooklyn Park
A neighbor in the community who declined to show her face or reveal her name told WMAR-2 News when she thinks about the discovery, she thinks back to what she heard the night before.
"I did hear a gentleman and a younger sounding woman screaming at the top of their lungs coming down the street. Usually there's people going up and down so I didn't think too much of it," she said.
When she found out why police were on her street Friday morning, she was left almost speechless.
"Honestly at first we were shocked, a little bit confused. I kind of beat myself up of not being that nosy neighbor and look out the window yesterday because I feel like I could've assisted if that was related at all."
She said with a corner store at the entrance of the community, there's usually a lot of traffic up and down the street but it's always friendly.
"Especially now that it's getting warmer outside people go get an ice cream you know a snack, it's not uncommon especially teenagers, there's a lot of bikes going up and down so it's a very family oriented neighborhood."
With that in mind, she said Friday's discovery doesn't make her feel unsafe.
"It doesn't make me uncomfortable to live here. I think anywhere in general you need to be wary nowadays so I don't think it should deter anyone from being in the area but you should always be mindful."
Police have since arrested Bundy's husband, 49-year-old Cedric Dion Calloway, in connection to this incident.
Detectives ask that anyone with information that could help this investigation contact them at 410-222-4731.
