A 37-year-old woman was found dead, with a head injury, inside the bathtub of a Bronx NYCHA apartment this week, according to cops and police sources. 

The woman was discovered unconscious and unresponsive at the building on East 137th Street near St. Ann’s Avenue, part of NYCHA’s Mitchel Houses, around 5 p.m. Monday, police said. 

She was pronounced dead on scene. 

Investigators initially believed she died of an overdose, but that is uncertain, as they did not find any drug paraphernalia, police sources said. 

She had a head injury, but it was unclear how she sustained it, the sources said. 

The city medical examiner’s office will officially determine how she died. 

Her name has not been released pending family notification.
