UTICA (AP) — A body found at Starved Rock State Park has been identified as a suburban Chicago woman who's been missing since late January.
LaSalle County Coroner Jody Bernard says 53-year-old Theresa Ann Hunt's body was found Saturday morning. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
Authorities do not suspect foul play. An autopsy is scheduled for this week.
Hunt had been missing from her Evanston home since Jan. 29.
Sgt. Robert Frazier is with the Illinois Department of Natural Resources Conservation Police. He says officials used cell phone records to track Hunt to the park.
It took more than 70 searchers about 35 minutes to find her body.
Starved Rock State Park is about 95 miles southwest of Chicago.
