Leon says the woman did not live at the home where she was located, but does live in the area.

"We've got some information that she may have sustained the injuries elsewhere and simply collapsed in the backyard," he added.

Leon says there is nothing believed at this time to be criminal in nature.

Anyone who has information that can assist police is asked to email Sgt. Watt at  jwatt@barriepolice.ca.
