LOCKPORT, N.Y. (WIVB) - Investigators in Niagara County hope an autopsy will reveal answers about why a woman was found barely alive and lying in a snow bank.

Lockport Police have identified the woman as 43-year-old Dawn Jehrio. A passerby spotted her Saturday morning outside the former Niagara County Infirmary on Davison Road. We're told she was unconscious and her body temperature was very low.

Jehrio later died at Eastern Niagara Hospital. Police say there's no sign of foul play.
