The Cuyahoga County Medical Examiner has released the name of the woman whose remains were found in a storage tote at Cleveland home last week.

The woman has been identified as 41-year-old Tyresha Little. She was reported missing on Aug. 30, 2022, according to the Black and Missing Foundation.

Little's body was found on July 20 when officers responded to the 3700 block of East 129th Street in the city's Mt. Pleasant neighborhood. Officers had been dispatched to the residence after receiving a tip about a body.

Officers taped off the area and waited for homicide detectives to arrive. Once there, investigators searched the backyard, where they found the tote with her remains inside.

The medical examiner hasn't released Little's cause or manner of death.
