Franco Garcia Update: Body of missing Boston College student found in reservoir, family says




...Garcia's body was found in the Chestnut Hill Reservoir, family friend Genoveva Tavera told The Associated Press.

The 21-year-old, who was studying chemistry and played clarinet in the symphony band, disappeared Feb. 22 after leaving a bar in Boston popular with college students.

According to CBS Boston, the Boston Fire department says it received a call about the body at 7:57 a.m.

By all accounts, he was a great kid. Still unknown if it was an unfortunate accident or foul play was involved.
