      Woman dead for some time

      A 29-year-old woman who was found dead last week in her Kitchener downtown apartment had been dead for some time before a friend found her, Waterloo regional police said today.

      Dawn Riley of Apt. 204, 105 Church St., a former Breslau Hotel employee, was lying on her sofa in her apartment when a friend found her Thursday about 4:30 p.m., said Staff Sgt. Paul Jardin.

      Police are investigating the "suspicious circumstances" of the case and are awaiting results of toxicology tests to determine the cause of death and whether foul play is involved, he said.

      Riley was hired last summer as a waitress and door person at the Breslau Hotel, working in the Hawk's Nest bar, where strippers perform, a hotel employee said.
