Missing Indian woman found dead near Chicago
|
|
An Indian-American who was reported to have disappeared from her Maine Township home near here in January was found dead in the Des Plaines River and authorities suspected suicide in her drowning death.
The body of Sangitagen Patel, 32, was recovered Sunday afternoon in Allison Woods Forest Preserve in unincorporated Wheeling Township, according to a Cook County Sheriff's office release.
There were no signs of foul play, authorities said. An autopsy by the Cook County Medical Examiner determined the cause of death was drowning.
After interviewing those who knew Patel, Cook County Sheriff's Police investigators determined her actions in the days before her disappearance suggested a possible suicide.
The woman was found caught in river debris by a couple about 12:30 p.m. about one-quarter of a mile south of Milwaukee Avenue.
Identification was initially made through personal property, including jewellery, found at the scene. Her family positively identified her body Monday.
Pael was last seen on Jan 2 as she left for her job at a Subway restaurant in Wheeling. |

Chicago Chronicle
|
|
The Chicago Chronicle is essentially a local Chicago newspaper, but with a national and international perspective, designed to provide readers with a one-stop shop for Chicago, national US, regional, and world news coverage, weather and sports information, with live updates on breaking business stories, and what's happening in the financial markets.
The biggest advantage we have is that we are an online newspaper, which means we are constantly refreshing our stories as more and more information comes to hand. Often when a story breaks the initial details are sketchy.
We and our sources around the world work hard to gather more information, verify facts, and provide a perspective of the major stories. Expert opinion often accompanies our articles to better inform readers, and provide a more complete understanding
of the news we deliver.
Financial markets and business reports are regular features as we pin down what's happening, and constantly refresh stock market indice readings, dollar currency rates, and breaking business news reports. Our world sports coverage is a priority, as is our regional news.
We like to think if you're looking for breaking news out of Chicago, Illinois, the United States, or the world, you'll look for it first at the Chicago Chronicle. |
