LAKEWOOD- More than 10 years after the disappearance of Lori Ceci Bova, Lakewood-Busti police haven’t closed their investigation.
The Lakewood woman’s husband, Tyrone, told police his wife, 26, never returned after leaving their New York Avenue apartment early June 8, 1997, to smoke a cigarette following a dispute.
Family and friends reported last seeing her the previous day in the Red
Lobster restaurant on Fairmount Avenue.
Lakewood-Busti Police Investigator Paul Gustafson said the department is doing all it can to solve the case.
“We actively have worked on the case for 10 years, and recently we have initiated some reinterviews and proactively interviewed individuals of interest,” he said.
Gustafson said Tyrone Bova has been uncooperative since he was last interviewed in late June 1997; nevertheless, he predicted a break in the case. Anyone with information should call Lakewood-Busti Police at 763-9563.
“I feel confident that at some point there will be someone with information that will lead us to the whereabouts of Lori Bova,”he said.
Family and friends, meanwhile, honored her Thursday night with a remembrance prayer service in Bethel Lutheran Church.
