WARWICK -- The police today released the name of the woman who was found dead outside her home Saturday morning.

Karen J. Donovan, 46, lived at 47-49 Bellevue Ave., in a second-floor apartment in the two-family house, Sgt. Robert Avizinis said today.

Her body was discovered on the ground below the second-story window after the police responded at 6:31 a.m. to a call about a disturbance.

"We are treating it as a suspicious death," Lt. Mark Brandreth said today.

Donovan has two children, the police said. She has two brothers, one in New Hampshire, the other on Nantucket.

Neighbors said Donovan moved in about a year ago.
