San Mateo Police Investigate Person Found Dead at House on Crescent Avenue

SAN MATEO (CBS SF) -- San Mateo police department officers on Saturday afternoon were at a house in the 800 block of Crescent Avenue on an "active death investigation" and have told residents in the area they "may see yellow police tape and officers in the area for the next few hours."

San Mateo police officer Michael Haobsh said in an e-mail late Saturday afternoon that police detectives and the San Mateo County Coroner's office were on the scene trying to determine whether a death there is suspicious or not.

In a Nixle message to the community at about 4:15 p.m. Saturday, police said the general public is not at risk, with the reported incident "isolated to the home."

No further information about specifically what police are investigating was immediately available.
