A 47-year-old woman who appeared to be highly intoxicated at taverns in downtown Oshkosh was found dead behind a garage in that city, police said Tuesday.

The woman was found about 3:30 p.m. Saturday in the area of New York Ave. west of Main St., according to a news release from the Oshkosh Police Department.

The woman is believed to have been new to the area and may have been attempting to find her way home, according to the release.

Results of an autopsy were pending Tuesday, but the woman's death appears to be an isolated incident and the public is not in danger, according to the release.
