A woman found dead in a house on the western edge of Summerlin this week was identified today by the Clark County coroner’s office as 28-year-old Karen Michelle Heely of Conway, S.C.
The coroner’s office hadn’t yet determined the cause and manner of Heely’s death.
Heely was found Sunday evening at 8 Panorama Crest Ave., where Clark County Fire Department crews were battling a blaze.
Scott Allison, a spokesman for the fire department, said the cause of the fire was still being investigated. He said Las Vegas police were assisting with the investigation.
