The body of a Texas woman who’d been missing for nearly three weeks has been found in San Antonio.
39-year-old Christina Lee Powell, 39, was found dead just before 7 p.m. Saturday at Huebner Oaks Center off in the front seat of her car by a security guard in the plaza parking lot.
The security guard told San Antonio Police officers that he checked on a suspicious vehicle that had been parked in the same spot for about a week. When he walked toward the car, he noticed a foul odor and when he looked inside, he found the body.
Powell was last seen around 10:30 a.m. on July 5 at a home off Red Hill Place near Apple Green Road when she had left her home on her way to work. Christina’s mother, Claudia Mobley, said that Christina called work before she left the house to tell them she was running late, but she never showed up.
Bexar County Medical Examiner officials said there was no apparent trauma when they looked at the body, but they will perform a full autopsy to determine the cause of death.
Officers found her purse with her identification along with her in the front seat.
The investigation is ongoing.
