Tragic doesn't begin to cover it. Probably a very nice young lady.

GALESBURG — Police said the hanging death of a 17-year-old Galesburg girl Friday afternoon was a suicide.

Police were contacted just after 2 p.m. Emergency personnel attempted to perform CPR to no avail. The girl was pronounced dead by Knox County Coroner Mark Thomas at 2:55 p.m.

A friend told police the girl spent the night at her house, before leaving around 11 a.m. The girl, who was reportedly upset about a recent break-up, also had sent text messages indicating suicide before police arrived on scene.

Hinchliff-Pearson-West Galesburg Chapel is in charge of arrangements.
