The Medical Examiner’s office identified the 64-year-old woman who died last month after falling from the Bingham Street overpass as Madeline Harcourt.
The victim died at the hospital from blunt force injuries after the fall on Feb. 12 on to the H-1 Freeway.
The case is still classified as an unattended death pending the results of further tests.
