BOSTON — Boston police are investigating a shooting death inside a luxury hotel in the city.
Commissioner Ed Davis said that the 26-year-old victim from New York City was offering massage services through Craigslist.
Police believe that she may have been involved with prostitution and that there was an attempted robbery.
The victim, whose name was not released, was found around 10 p.m. Tuesday. A security guard found the woman bound and shot multiple times in the chest in the hallway on the 20th floor of the Marriott Copley Plaza at 110 Huntington Avenue.
She was taken to Boston Medical Center where she later died.
Police released surveillance images on Wednesday and no arrests have been made.
Detectives are currently investigating the possibility that this incident is related to another. On April, 10, at approximately 12:46 a.m., officers responded to a robbery in progress at the Westin Hotel at 10 Huntington Avenue.
Police received a report from a 29-year-old female that she was robbed at gunpoint in her hotel room.
The Boston Homicide Unit is actively investigating.
Anyone with information is asked to call 617-343-4470.
