"Police say they don’t suspect foul play as human remains pulled from the Petawawa River have been identified as a missing Petawawa girl, the OPP said Tuesday.

An autopsy confirmed that the body found early Friday afternoon was 17-year-old Sarah Donovan who had been missing since May 5, Upper Ottawa Valley OPP said in a press release. Donovan had been missing since officers responded to a report of a teen girl entering the Petawawa River from a town rail bridge.

A passerby found her body near West Street in the town about 150 km northwest of Ottawa.

The girl now identified as Donovan was one of two missing persons files.."

This was discussed in the Trinity Poil thread as a second missing girl, but she deserves her own thread.
