'A lot of unknowns' after woman goes missing in lake
Lake Michigan, Whihala Beach, Indiana -
An investigation continued Sunday into how a Whiting woman went missing in Lake Michigan near Whihala Beach, but authorities did not resume a search of the water, an official said.
Thalia Rodriguez, 20, was walking on a pier about 10 p.m. Friday with a friend after the two went out to eat, Indiana Department of Natural Resources Conservation Officer Shawn Brown said.
Emergency crews arrived a short time later and could hear Rodriguez, but could not see her, he said.
"We're still trying to gather information to say why she went in," Brown said Sunday.
Rodriguez's friend told investigators Rodriguez fell in the water as the friend was walking away from her, he said.
There is a guardrail in the area where Rodriguez went in the water, he said.
Initial reports didn't indicate alcohol was a factor, but that remains under investigation, Brown said. Officers are working with Rodriguez's friend, he said.
