NEW YORK, June 19 (UPI) -- A woman who was with NFL player Adam "Pacman" Jones during a melee at a Las Vegas strip club has been found dead in New York, police say.

While friends and family of Sadia Morrison have alleged Morrison was likely thrown from a building, police have not released an official cause of death in the case, the Las Vegas Review-Journal said Thursday.

"We're looking at any and all possibilities," New York City Police Department spokesman Martin Brown said.

Morrison's body was found last Friday by police responding to a emergency call for a woman needing help, the Review-Journal said.

Morrison was among those arrested in February 2007 when a shooting occurred at the Minxx strip club in Las Vegas. Jones, a former standout player with the Tennessee Titans, also was arrested.

The newspaper said Morrison received a sentence of three years probation after pleading no contest to charges she fought with strippers and a bouncer during the 2007 incident.
