The 55-year-old married mother of two apparently left her car near a vehicle and foot bridge off Washington Street and Reservoir Drive, both of which run parallel to Route 287, they told Daily Voice.

An NJ State Police chopper with a thermal imaging camera helped lead responders to the body, which was removed shortly before 9:45 p.m. from near the tree line of the reservoir, responders said.

No further information was being released out of respect for survivors.
