ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — A body was found in the water at a St. Pete marina Sunday morning, police said.

Police said around 8:30 a.m., the body of a woman was found in the water at the Suntex Marina, at 5821 32nd Way S.

On Monday, police identified the woman as 53-year-old Heather Sutton of Winter Park. She was staying on a boat with relatives, according to officers.

She was last seen on the boat last night until she was found in the water Sunday morning.

The preliminary investigation does not suggest foul play, however, a medical examiner will determine her cause of death.
