Woman found dead in storage unit identified

The Clark County coroner’s office has identified the woman found dead in a storage unit Monday in northwest Las Vegas.

Nathalie Burris, 59, was found at CubeSmart, 8856 W. Centennial Parkway, near the 215 Beltway. Her cause and manner of her death were pending, the coroner’s office said Wednesday.

Police said Burris had been living in the unit and was found locked inside. It would have been impossible for her to accidentally lock herself in, police said, and it is believed she died over the weekend. There was evidence of drug use in the unit and that other people had been staying with Burris.
