CHICAGO — Chicago police are investigating the death of a missing former Harold Washington College student whose body was found in a Pilsen apartment building earlier this week.

Michelle Manalansan, 28, had last been seen on Feb. 9 near 300 E. South Water Street wearing a pink jogging suit and white gym shoes, according to a missing persons report issued by police.

Her body was found the morning of March 17 by a resident of a building in the 1400 block of South Cullerton Ave., said Officer Daniel O’Brien, a police spokesman, and was identified by the Cook County Medical Examiner’s Office.

At the time of the discovery, police were unable to determine her gender, race or age, O’Brien said.
