ONONDAGA COUNTY -- Investigators have answered some of the questions about the death of a woman who was found in a ravine off the 2900 block of Webb Road, Lafayette early Monday morning.

The victim is Patricia Gryczka, 53 of Leslee Terrace, Geddes. The Onondaga County Medical Examiners Office has ruled her death as a homicide, although investigators are not revealing how she was killed.

Sheriff's Detectives responded to Gryczka's home and discovered it had been burglarized. Her car, a 2003 Dodge Neon, was not at the residence and was later found by police on West Onondaga Street near Velasko Road in Syracuse.

Investigators spent nearly 12 hours on the scene where the body was found. Click here to see our earlier coverage.

The Onondaga County Sheriff's Department plans a news conference to reveal more information Tuesday afternoon.
