Yale Grad Student Missing

A Yale medical school graduate student went missing Tuesday, the Yale Daily News reports. The 24-year-old Annie Le has not been seen or heard from since Tuesday morning, according to police at the New Haven, Conn., school.

Police said there was no sign of foul play but did not divulge any more details of the investigation. Le's last documented appearance came on a surveillance camera at 10 a.m. Tuesday morning, when she was seen entering a Yale research facility, the report says. It's not known when she left that building, but her purse, which held money and a cellphone, was left in her office.

Le was last seen wearing a knee-length brown skirt, bright green short-sleeve T-shirt, brown shoes, and a brown necklace, according to several reports. She is described as being 4 feet, 11 inches tall, weighing 80 pounds, and having straight, shoulder-length brown hair and brown eyes. She is of Asian descent.

If anyone has information about the case, contact the Yale Police Department at (203) 432-4400.

Annie Le

It also appears in the photo that the person holding the door is wearing plastic gloves.

I agree!

I agree, this story isn't being covered well. Was she even reported missing in 24 hours, and if so, why wasn't their a massive man hunt then? There are SO many important aspects to this case 1. the fire alarm 2. the canceled class. Get prints from the fire alarm and go from there, get prints from everyone in that school! Another thing, what about the story she wrote ? WHO DID IT AFFECT? Did it make anyone loose their jobs, was anyone extremely mad over it? Really well researched and well written stories can do that! Something really weird is going on here (I.E Yale is covering their but), even my own school hasn't sent out a "watch your back" email, and they do it all the time with not so serious stuff. This is serious, this is sad, and we need to be taking it as such.

Inside Job

4-11, 80 lbs? My dog weighs more than that! This reads like an abduction by someone who had access (janitor?)w/o the screening. She could have left in a box.
