PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- Police are asking for help from the public in identifying a woman whose body was found last month in a large plastic container on a south Philadelphia street.
The badly decomposed remains were found July 15 in a gray container wrapped in plastic wrap in the Grays Ferry section of the city. The case was labeled a suspicious death, and there was no immediate word on what may have caused the woman's death.

Police said the woman's age and race were unknown but she was 5-foot-5 to 5-foot-7 with dark straight hair, wearing a green tank top and multi-colored leggings and had a bandage on her right forearm.
They also say she had a tattoo of a rose on her upper back with the possible words "R.I.P Jassy 5-11-08."
