The Tennessee Bureau Investigation said the death of a Dickson woman found over the weekend is now being investigated as a homicide.
The victim, Ashlee Long, was found dead by her mother and stepfather Saturday morning in a bed at her home on Bishop Lane in Dickson, according to Tennessee Bureau of Investigation spokeswoman Kristin Helm.
The preliminary autopsy shows that Ashlee Long died from blunt force trauma.

The woman's husband, Morris L. Long Jr., 23, was rushed to Vanderbilt Medical Center on Saturday after he stepped into oncoming traffic on Interstate 40 near McCrory Lane in Bellevue, according to Helm.
According to Metro police, Morris Long was hit by a large truck and taken to Vanderbilt University Medical Center. His injuries are not believed to be life-threatening, but he is in critical condition.

Neighbors said the couple were married a year ago and never outwardly seemed to have any trouble.
