NEWARK -- Officials have identified a body found Monday evening in Newark as a 25-year-old Manhattan woman.

Francine Vincent was found unresponsive in the driveway of a South 20th Street residence shortly after 9 p.m., said Essex County Prosecutor's Office spokeswoman, Katherine Carter.

Vincent was later pronounced dead at the scene, Carter said. An investigation into the exact cause of Vincent's death by the county Homicide Task Force is ongoing, Carter said.

Vincent's death has not been ruled a homicide at this time, Carter added.

On the night of the incident, police were seen entering and exiting the yard of a burnt-out, red-and-white house during the course of the investigation Monday night.

Neighborhood residents told NJ Advance Media the residence where Vincent was found is frequently used as a shelter by the homeless.
