Last week, the Burlington County Prosecutor's office released a composite sketch and dental work of an unidentified woman who was found dead in the woods in Pemberton Township last June.

Now, authorities have identified the woman as Lynch, who was reported missing to the Falls Township Police in Bucks County last April, the station says.

Authorities say two months after Lynch went missing, two people riding ATVs found her remains off of Quail Run Trail in Pemberton Township.

Authorities have not determined how Lynch died and are asking anyone with information on her death to come forward, the station reports. According to Philly.com, the Burlington County Prosecutor's Office says Lynch's death has been ruled a "homicide by unspecified means."

Anyone with information is asked to call a tip line at 609-267-8300.
