A woman found dead in a Las Vegas mobile home Wednesday by firefighters was identified Thursday by the Clark County coroner's office as 55-year-old Jo Ann Meier of Las Vegas.

The coroner had not determined the cause and manner of Meier's death.

Firefighters responded about 3 p.m. to a single-wide home at the Desert Inn Mobile Estates, 3578 Fort McHenry Drive.

Las Vegas police said Wednesday afternoon there was no sign of foul play.
