A missing 22-year-old graduate student from La Crosse, Wisconsin, has been found d**d after disappearing near the Mississippi River early Sunday morning per CBS News.
Eliotte Heinz was last seen around 3:22 a.m. on the 500 block of Front Street South, according to the La Crosse Police Department. Her school, Viterbo University, had become a central hub for volunteer search efforts before the tragic discovery.
“This was not the outcome we had hoped for throughout this search,” La Crosse Police Chief Shawn Kudron said per CBS News. “Our thoughts are with Eliotte’s family, friends and all those who knew Eliotte. We are grateful for the outpouring of support from so many within the La Crosse community, the State of Wisconsin and nationally to locate Eliotte.”
