A 39-year-old Harrisburg man returning from a weekend trip to New York City with a 25-year-old woman and a 15-year-old girl noticed that the woman sitting in the back seat was dead when he stopped at an uptown car wash, according to city police.

Police said he had stopped at the car wash about 12:15 a.m. Monday to clean his rental vehicle before returning it.
