Woman found dead along rural road was homicide victim, coroner says

The victim has been identified as 44-year-old Grabriela Ibanez.

ARAPAHOE COUNTY, Colo. — The Arapahoe County coroner's office on Wednesday said a woman whose body was found along a road near Strasburg last month was the victim of a homicide.

Around noon on Aug. 23, a resident found the woman's body along Yulle Road, between Colfax Avenue and Interstate 70, the Arapahoe County Sheriff's Office said. That's between the towns of Bennett and Strasburg.

She has been identified as 44-year-old Grabriela Ibanez.

When her body was found, the sheriff's office said they were investigating her death as suspicious. On Wednesday, the coroner's office said her death was a homicide. They did not say how she might have died.

A spokesperson for the sheriff's office said this week they have not identified any suspects in the killing.
