Chapel Hill police released three radio traffic recordings Wednesday in connection with the homicide investigation into UNC student Faith Danielle Hedgepeth’s death.

Hedgepeth was found by friends in her apartment off Old Chapel Hill Road on the morning of Sept. 7.

Chapel Hill police have released little information about the investigation since her death.

The conversations among dispatchers and Chapel Hill police were redacted to protect the investigation, according to a police press release.

The first recording began at 11:06 a.m. on Sept. 7.

A dispatcher told police that there was a 19-year-old woman not breathing and unconscious at 5639 Old Chapel Hill Road.

The recording ends at 11:18 a.m.

The other two records contain little new information about Hedgepeth’s death.

The second recording contained information about found property and a traffic accident, though it is unclear whether those incidents are related to Hedgepeth’s death.
