Officers responding to the call found the 27-year-old woman unconscious and unresponsive with injuries to her body, lying face up on the kitchen floor of the home on Minna Street near Martense Ln. in Kensington around 5 a.m., cops and police sources said.

Paramedics confirmed the woman’s death at the scene of the accident. Police sources said she did not live in the house.
