Vermont State Police are investigating the early Thursday morning reported death of a woman in Shrewsbury.
Detectives and members of the state police crime scene search team were at a residence at 9675 Cold River Road in Shrewsbury on Thursday afternoon where police said Sara Reynolds, 32, died earlier in the day.

A few hours later, at 1:55 a.m. Thursday, Bailey called 911 from a neighbor’s home reporting that Reynolds had killed herself in their residence, according to police.
Troopers at the scene found Reynolds dead inside the house, police said.

“There is no concern for the public’s safety regarding this death investigation,” the police release statde.
State police added they are working closely in the investigation with the Rutland County State’s Attorney’s Office.
