The woman's body was found hours after the car drove into the pond Monday night.
TINLEY PARK, IL — A woman whose body was pulled from a Tinley Park pond after she drove into it has been identified, the Cook County Medical Examiner's Office said.
The woman's body was found following an extensive search after a car left the road and drove into a Tinley Park pond Monday night. Authorities knew at the time there was one person in the car when it left the roadway and went into a pond, Carr said.
A bystander attempted to reach the woman in the car, but the vehicle sank too quickly, Carr said. Water rescue crews were on-scene for several hours working to recover the vehicle and the person inside. Officials said Monday that it was not immediately clear what caused the vehicle to leave the roadway.
