A few days after police released surveillance video of Michaela "Mickey" Shunick riding her bike home from a friend's house, two fishermen spotted it in the Atchalafaya River.
Police later discovered the black and gold Schwinn in a muddy basin under a bridge in Whiskey Bay Sunday morning. The bike was located over 25 miles from where Shunick, a senior at the University of Louisiana, was last seen on surveillance footage riding her bike home from a friend's house at around 2 am May 19.
Investigators have identified two of the three vehicles shown on the same surveillance cameras, but have ruled out any involvement by the drivers of the four-door car and white, four-door pickup. They are still looking for the owner of the third vehicle, a white Chevrolet Z-71 pickup, to determine whether that person has any involvement in the case.
Police speculate that Mickey might have been hit by a car or truck as she was riding home because her bike had a damaged rear tire and a bent rim. Hope still exists that Shunick might be found alive.
