A woman visiting Nashville from New Jersey was found alive after “emerging” from the riverbank, police said.
After an extensive search by the Nashville Metropolitan Police Department (NMPD) and the Nashville Fire Department into Thursday morning, 33-year-old Alexandria Chmiel was found.
“BREAKING: Ali Chmiel emerges from the riverbank and… [investigative] “Team,” the Nashville Metropolitan Police Department wrote to X.
Riley Strain was not “visibly intoxicated” when he had drinks at a Nashville celebrity bar, according to a report.
“Thank goodness! She’s the lucky one,” one X commenter wrote.
Chmiel went missing in the early hours of July 25 while visiting Music City from New Jersey with friends.
