Police probe death of woman found in pool of blood

Police are investigating the death of a woman found in a pool of blood this morning in her North Philadelphia apartment.

Police have not yet ruled the death a homicide or identified the woman.

But relatives said she was Suszanne Daniels, 42, an adult day care center worker and mother of two young adults.

They believe her boyfriend of three years may be responsible.

"[The police] said he busted her skull with a blunt object," said Lisa Outlaw, her sister.

Daniels was found in the bedroom of her apartment apartment in the Fairmount Manor housing project on the 600 block of North Marshall Street about 7:15 a.m. by her son.

She was pronounced dead at the scene at 7:30 a.m.

Her 20-year-old son, Terrell Outlaw who lives in the house with her, kicked in the bedroom door because he thought something was wrong when she did not get up for work, said another sister, Nicole Johnson.

She worked at an adult daycare center in Germantown, said family members.

In addition to Terrell, she had a 25 year old daughter. relatives said.

Her family described Daniels as a caring individual who liked to help people.

"She was a fun loving person," said Johnson. "She liked to joke and laugh but the main thing she did was work. She worked every day."
