After days of searching, the body of a teenager missing since New Year’s Eve was found in the snow near South Lake Tahoe.
Authorities said there was no evidence of foul play but stressed the investigation was continuing.
Alyssa Byrne, 19, went to the Snow Globe Music Festival in South Lake Tahoe on Monday night and hadn't been seen since.
"Our preliminary investigation with this morning's discovery, it would
tend to point in the direction that Alyssa had elected to walk home from
the event," Douglas County sheriff's official Paul Howell told reporters at a news conference.
A utility worker found the body, later identified as Byrne's, about
10 feet from a road. The body was not visible from the road because of high piles of snow.
