JSO investigating after woman found dead, partially clothed under Northside bridge

Jacksonville Police are investigating a woman’s death as a homicide after she was found underneath the Zoo Parkway Bridge Monday. According to the incident report, Police say when they found the woman she only had a bikini top on that was pulled down below her breast and her face and left side appeared to be discolored.

A fisherman says he found 31-year-old Dana Danson when he was under the bridge looking for some bait. Jason Cain says something told him to go fishing that day even though it was supposed to be raining.

“I seen the puddle of water sitting on her belly I can see all the discoloration. And I’m like, she got to be dead.” Cain says.

He says at first, he though she was just enjoying the low tide view of the water.

“I don’t care what kind of person she was, what she went through or anything like that, nobody deserves that at all, like that’s horrible.” Cain says.

Danson’s family says they’re asking anyone with information on her death to come forward and whoever is responsible to turn themselves in.
