Police Question “Persons of Interest” in Lauren Burk Death

Auburn police say they have questioned “persons of interest” in the death of Auburn University freshman Lauren Burk. Burk was found with gunshot wounds a few miles from campus on Tuesday night. She was taken to a nearby hospital and pronounced dead.

Nearly 20 minutes after her body was found, police found her Honda Civic on fire in a parking lot near a dormitory.

Police did not release details on the persons of interest and did not say how many there were. A $10,000 reward for any information leading to an arrest in the case has been offered by Alabama Gov. Bob Riley’s office.

“We have not named a suspect and are still investigating leads,” said Auburn police Capt. Tom Stofer.

Burk, 18, graduated from Walton High School in Marietta, Georgia last year. She was a member of Delta Gamma sorority.
