The body of an Ohio State University student was found by Columbus Police on July 12, according to an article from WSYX ABC 6.
Police officers found 25-year-old Amina Alhaj-Omar’s body in a remote area near where she had last been seen, the article said.
She had last been seen on June 10 near South High Street and Interstate 270 in South Columbus, according to ABC 6.
Columbus Police said Alhaj-Omar’s car was found in the area and appeared to have been in a crash.
Before her body was found, Sargeant Joe Albert with Columbus Police said Alhaj-Omar had been seen in a convenience store holding two knives, the article said.
On June 29, officials said they would be ending the search for the then-missing OSU student due to “exhausting all leads,” according to the article.
The article said Alhaj-Omar was a graduate student studying social work at OSU, where she also received her bachelor’s degree in criminology.
