Chicago river fatality

I've walked over this bridge before in Chicago. Too bad this happened for this young lady, but at 4AM in the morning, you gotta think that booze was somehow a key player in this unfortunate accident.

Houston woman dies after falling into icy Chicago River

Posted on December 17, 2013 |

A trip to Chicago took a tragic turn for a Houston woman. KHOU and CW39 NewsFix say Alicia Garnett, 30, was walking with a friend along the Chicago River early Tuesday when she slipped and fell into the water.



The woman reportedly fell at about 4 a.m. A passer-by called 911, CBS Chicago says, and it took about 10 to 15 minutes for emergency crews to pull her out.
Garnett died later at a hospital. Watch a video from the scene:
