SOUTH FARMINGDALE, Long Island (WABC) -- A 27-year-old woman was found dead inside a home on Long Island and now police are trying to figure out who killed her.



Kelly Owen was discovered inside a home on 1st Avenue just before 4 p.m. on Wednesday.

Officials say there was no sign of a break-in in her home -- and now authorities are looking into her past.

Owen was supposed to be at her daughter's school to help with her after-school program. Her parents knew something was wrong and called police.
