PALM BAY (CBSMiami/AP) — A woman's body was found in the trunk of a car found abandoned in Palm Bay.

Palm Bay police say the body was discovered Tuesday morning. When officers arrived, they saw the trunk was ajar and found the body of a woman, believed to be in her 20s, inside.

Palm Bay police spokesman Sgt. Michael Pusatere says the car had been parked there since Monday afternoon.

Surveillance video shows a man leaving the area where the victim was found. Pusatere says investigators aren't sure if the person who dropped off the car is the same person responsible for the woman's death.

The woman's name has not been released. An autopsy will determine the cause of death.
