Police are investigating the death of a woman found slain in her Burbank apartment over the weekend.

Estrella Carrera, 25, was found Sunday in the bathtub of her apartment, in the 7800 block of Rutherford Avenue of the southwest suburb, police said in a news release. She'd been stabbed multiple times, they said.

Carerra reportedly got married over the weekend and was wearing her wedding dress when officials found her body, according to a report in the Chicago Tribune. NBC Chicago has been unable to confirm that information.

Neighbors, however, said they had no clue that she was married, planned on getting married or was even seeing someone.

"I seen her walking to her car, her and her son. She never had problems with anybody. 'Hi' and 'bye' and that was it," said neighbor Jason Tokarczyk. "I never ever seen her with a guy since I have been here, and I never seen her walking in and out with a guy at all."
