The disappearance of the Chicago woman reported missing by the Bloomington Police Department on July 5 still is under investigation, police said.

it's a paywall for me
can you summarize please?
So, April Capsel was last seen on July 1, 2023 after a friend dropped her off about midnight on Lundy Street in Streator. Streator Police Chief, John Franklin, said the police department has assembled a task force that includes the U.S Marshals Service to try and find her.

Chief Franklin said that a possible murder weapon was found in a vehicle in Chicago. It has been sent to the Illinois State Police Crime Lab to see if it is the murder weapon.

Capsel is a white woman who is 5 feet, 7 inches tall and weighs about 168 pounds. She has dark blond to light brown hair and blue eyes. She has a scar on her right arm from surgery, and she has a tattoo of a dragon or a snake on her right hip.

I wonder whose vehicle it was
 
The height in the missing info is off by 3 inches, but the age and location is right and the pictures very much look like her. If so, she was recently paroled for identity theft after convictions for drug trafficking.

As follow up here's a news article related to the mugshot in my previous comment above from the IDOC. Don't think this is related to the recently posted homicide inquiry however. Grayslake Woman Arrested for Forgery, Other Charges in Connection with Alleged Mendota Identity Theft Incident
