New York Jennifer Hicks vanished in the early hours of New Year’s Eve after last being seen at a bar and was reported missing. The unfortunate story is that she has been found dead blocks from train tracks.
Hicks was out with her friends to celebrate the New Year holiday and was reportedly last seen at a bar called Ziggy’s, located on Railroad Street in Rochester around 2:30 am.
Her father after not hearing from her on New Year’s Day called the police and reported her daughter was missing.
Police began their search for the woman on foot and by drone and circulated a missing person’s bulletin to their social media.
On Tuesday around 4 pm, Hicks‘ body was discovered at the bottom on an embankment near railroad tracks on Scio Street and Portland Avenue in Rochester.
According to Monroe County Sheriff’s Department PIO Deputy Brendan Hurley, there was ‘no obvious signs of foul play.’
The sheriff’s office is waiting for the medical examiner’s report to find out Hicks’ manner and cause of death.
‘It is an active investigation,’ Hurley said. ‘Nothing is ruled out since we don’t have a definitive answer on how she died.’
There seems to be foul play in her death even though the police say there were no signs of foul play. It’s too early to conclude since the medical examiner’s report isn’t in yet.
