Chicago (AP) — The dead woman who was
found entangled in a baggage conveyor belt at
Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport died by suicide, authorities said
Friday.
The Cook County Medical
Examiner’s Office concluded following an autopsy that the 57-year-old woman
died by asphyxiation from hanging.
Firefighters responding to a 911
call found the woman’s body entangled in the belt around 7:45 a.m. Thursday in
a baggage room near a terminal that serves international flights.
According to police,
surveillance footage shows the woman entering the area around 2:27 a.m.
Thursday, but it doesn’t show what happened to her. The room where the woman
was found is off limits to the public.
Police declined to comment
further on the matter pending the outcome of an investigation.
