ASPEN — The Pitkin County coroner’s office said an Aspen woman probably struck her head on a sprinkler head near where her body was found in a park last week, but it’s unclear how that happened.
Coroner’s officials said Wednesday that the death certificate for 54-year-old Cheryl Ann Lurie lists the cause of death as blunt-force trauma to the head but that her manner of death is undetermined.
Aspen police had said after the sprinkler head was found that her death appeared accidental. The coroner said “no further conclusions can or should be drawn from this lack of determination as to the manner of death.”
Lurie had lived in Aspen for about 30 years.
