The woman who was found dead on the side of a Pennsylvania road on Valentine’s Day has been identified by police as a woman from Philadelphia, Philly.com reported.

Investigators believe the woman, whose body was found with no obvious signs of trauma on the remote Plainfield Road in Ferguson Township, is 35-year-old Corinne Pena.

An autopsy failed to reveal a cause of death so toxicology tests were ordered, the results of which won’t be available for some time, according toPhillyVoice.

“Pena, who was wearing just gray sweatpants and a thermal shirt when she was found, remained unidentified for a few days,” Philly.com reported. “Investigators released several photos of her distinctive tattoos and a wedding band, which helped them identify her. Pena married a woman from Lancaster last May, according to her Facebook page.”
