A woman from the United States, who was initially reported missing following a car crash, has been found dead in a deep well in what the police have described as a “tragic accident.”
Shirley Obert, a Chick-fil-A employee, was involved in the crash on Saturday morning in Monroe County, located just outside of Atlanta. According to the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office, the incident occurred in the early hours of March 29.
Authorities issued a public alert on social media, asking residents near Oxford Road and Abercrombie Road to be on the lookout for any signs of Obert, as they suspected she might have been in the area. After a thorough search, Obert’s body was discovered in a deep well, confirming her tragic passing.
The Sheriff’s Office has labeled the incident as an accident, but the investigation is still ongoing. Family and friends are mourning the loss of Obert, who was remembered fondly by colleagues and the community.
