Disappearance of Anwesha Dey

On May 3, 2015, 30-year-old Anwesha Dey was last seen leaving a friend's home near 23rd and S Streets in Lincoln, Nebraska.  She was walking home alone but never arrived. At the time the weather was bad and was stormy with heavy winds.

CCTV from the Union Plaza area showed that Anwesha had fallen into Antelope Creek at 7:27 pm. The creek was only 3ft deep, but the current was strong. Anwesha was also known to not know how to swim. It's believed that she had accidentally drowned. 

Her body may have never been found due to Antelope Creek flowing into Salt Creek, then which connects to the Platte River, which joins into the Missouri River that goes into the Gulf of Mexico. Her body may have ended up in any of these bodies of water. 

Anwesha was born and raised in India. She moved to Nebraska to attend the University of Nebraska. She studied biological sciences. Anwesha originally believed in the Hindu religion but began practicing Buddhism after she moved to the United States

Anwesha is an Asian female and was 30 years old at the time. She is 5'9" and 110 lbs. She has black hair and brown eyes. She was wearing an orange hooded zip-up sweatshirt with the Fall Lake State Park logo, blue jeans, and blue/pink or white lace-up shoes. She was carrying a light blue umbrella and an orange and gray backpack.
