University of North Carolina student Brook Cheuvront found dead after going missing on hike in South Africa: ‘We are devastated’

A North Carolina student has been found dead a day after she went missing while hiking a mountain in South Africa, authorities and her “devastated” family said Monday.

Brook Cheuvront, 20, was reported missing Saturday from Table Mountain in Cape Town — where she was studying — after she stopped responding to friends and couldn’t be located on a tracking app, a rep for SANPark, which manages the mountain, told CBS News.

Rangers and trail runners searched until late Saturday, when it was no longer practical to continue, spokesperson JP Louw said.

An aircraft joined the search Sunday — and found the American student’s body.

This is an old story posted before. I looked for anything new. There is no word as to investigation into her death. Snake bite, lions, fall, beaten, strangled, shot, stabbed. Shouldn't there be an investigation, a criminal investigation if it was homicide?

Widely reported as a fall from a mountain hike while alone. Being SA, maybe, maybe not.

White girl killed in South Africa. A sad story.

Whites should only travel in groups IF they go to SA.

“University of North Carolina student Brook Cheuvront found dead after going missing on hike in South Africa”

She was missing a brain (being in South Africa) before being completely missing.

A quick check with Perplexity said the investigation is still ongoing and no details have been released yet. So the case is still open.

IMHO a cover story, easy enough to through a molested body over a ragged cliff and call it was an accident.

I’m sure she felt like a privileged white woman right up to the moment she was murdered.
Hopefully it went quickly...it probably didn’t.

I hope she wasn't hiking wearing that fracture boot.

“Whites should only travel in groups IF they go to SA.”

One should not be, where one does not belong.

In this country, they would provide information. Was it murder or an accident? Was she raped?

So why are you posting them if there’s nothing new?

Are you just bored or are you looking for attention?

Otherwise, why waste the bandwidth?

Plenty of scorpions and venomous snake species in SA, including Black Mambas.

It’s very simple. She had a heart attack, fell out a window onto an exploding bomb, and had a shooting accident.
