A body found in Washington state has been confirmed to be that of a missing 54-year-old woman.
Cheryl DeBoer was found dead in Mountlake Terrace on Sunday, Feb. 14, after going missing on Feb. 8.
Her employer confirmed in a statement obtained by Q13 Fox that the body found in a culvert on Cedar Way and 244th Street SW was indeed DeBoer. The body was found less than a mile and a half from where authorities discovered her car, near the Mountlake Terrace Transit Center.
Police say they’re still investigating and wouldn’t confirm the statement by Fred Hutch Cancer Research Center.
“It’s too early to determine anything,” said Commander Kevin Pickard of the Mountlake Terrace Police Department. “At this time, we’ve just started our investigation.”
