CORTLANDVILLE, NY (607NewsNow) – Authorities determined there was no foul play in the death of a woman in Cortlandville last year.

On February 5, State Police released the autopsy results for Robin Bowman, of Findlay, Ohio.

The 59-year-old’s death was found to be a result of exposure, which caused hypothermia. Bowman was located deceased on West Road near Pall Trinity on the morning of November 25, 2025. Troopers say she had been living in her vehicle at the time.

It took about two weeks to identify Bowman, and her reason for driving to Cortlandville has never been publicly disclosed.

In related news, an investigation is ongoing after the discovery of a deceased woman behind Cort Lanes Bowling on February 1.
