MEXICO CITY (AP) — The haunting story of a young woman left on the side of a highway late at night in northern Mexico has ended in sorrow, with her decomposing body found in a subterranean water tank at a motel. The story of Debanhi Escobar made headlines because of a haunting photo taken by a driver who was supposed to take her home that night. The driver, who worked for a taxi app, took the photo to show she got out of his car alive April 8. Nobody saw her until Thursday, when workers at a motel reported foul odors coming from the water holding tank.
