Lanell Barsock, a 29-year-old black woman, died Wednesday, June 16, in the 37400 block of Rockie Lane in Palmdale, according to Los Angeles County coroner's records.
Barsock's body was found in a garage by a friend about 5 p.m., said Ed Winter, spokesman for the coroner's office. She had a bag over her head, Winter said.
Although it was initially believed that Barsock had sustained blunt-force trauma to the head, it was revealed she was shot, according to coroner's records.
Winter said no arrests have been made in connection with the case.
