NEW HAVEN, Conn. — Police on Sunday said they found what they believe is the body of a Yale University graduate student and bride-to-be hidden inside the wall of a university building where she was last seen five days before.
New Haven Assistant Police Chief Peter Reichard said officials are presuming the body was that of doctoral student Annie Le of Placerville, who has been the focus of a massive police search since Tuesday.
“It hasn’t been positively identified as of this time,” Reichard told reporters Sunday night. “However, we are assuming it is her … so we are treating it as a homicide.”
