Police in Arlington are asking residents to report anything suspicious that could help investigators find the person responsible for the death of Helen Jones, 81, whose body was found in her home Jan. 4.

No arrests have been made and police, saying they don’t want to compromise their investigation, are releasing few details of what they know about her killing...

Arlington residents think Jones’ killing is drug related and is linked to several other burglaries in the community around the same time. Police confirm the other burglaries, but won’t comment on drugs or any links to Jones’ death. They didn’t say if anything was taken from Jones’ home.
