Where is Meyers Lake?

 

[Saribella]

Meyers Lake looks to be about less than 2 miles south of where they were last seen.

Where is Meyers Lake?

Meyers Lake is where their bicycles were found. The lake that was drained and searched.

 

[DylansMom34]

I wonder how far from the lake and how they weren't found sooner. So sad

Meyers Lake is where their bicycles were found. The lake that was drained and searched.

That is what I was afraid of. Could it be possible they were not murdered at all?

 

[matou]

I heard the news on HLN about 15 minutes ago too, the word is spreading fast.

Meyers Lake is the lake from which it is assumed they were abducted. The bodies were NOT found at Meyers Lake, as quoted above.

 

[shefner]

I pray for these hunters. Their lives are forever changed by their discovery. Bless them.

Where is Meyers Lake?

that is where they went missing...??

 

[Flutterflies]

Is Meyers Lake near where they went missing?

Meyers lake has a walking biking trail where the girls bikes were found (on the trail) and Elizabeth's purse was also found on the other side of the fence close to the lake.

The media report is wrong?

 

[TonyGatto]

Nearly five months after Iowa cousins Lyric Cook and Elizabeth Collins disappeared, the girls' families have been told two bodies were found by hunters in a wooded area, though the identities of the bodies have not been confirmed, authorities said.

Can you link the report, clu? I listened to the presser. LE will not say exactly where the bodies were located but they were in the woods and found by hunters. LE would not confirm they were female childrens' bodies either. But we all got the message. These are our missing girls.

 

[honesty]

Just a thought. If they are bringing in divers, the girls could have been found near a pond. Ponds can be very deep and pretty big.

Their bicycles were found on a walking/biking trail that is around 3/4 of Meyers lake. We'll have to wait for COD from the medical examiner to find out what happened.

So very sad! RIP little ones .

 

[cluciano63]

The link and post seem to be gone from here now...

 

[tnhybrid]

Just another AP link... apparently a press conference tomorrow.

Abben said additional details would be released at a news briefing Thursday.

 

[Ollipop]

The media report is wrong?

Yes...KMTV's report is incorrect. That is a station in Omaha, NE, I believe. I suppose, relative to Omaha, Meyers Lake is close to where they were found, but I personally have heard from family that the bodies were found by hunters in Bremer County, north of here.

I live across the road from Meyers Lake, I've been here most of the day. There is no hunting anywhere near Meyers Lake, we are well within city limits. There has been no LE activity at the lake whatsoever today as far as I've seen.
