Colorado Nanny Found Dead In Apartment In Austria

VIENNA (AP) - Austrian police say the body of a 25-year old woman from Colorado has been found in her Vienna apartment and the cause of her death is under investigation.

Police spokesman Thomas Keiblinger said Wednesday the woman's body was found after she did not show up at the home where she worked as an au pair and her employer called police.

Police and firefighters who forced open her door Tuesday evening found the half-naked body on a mattress in the bedroom. An autopsy is being conducted.

The woman is not being named under Austrian privacy laws.
