Mystery Death Is Under Probe In Lake Wales
LAKE WALES (UP)—Mrs. Robert Zorzi, an attractive mother of two children, left the home of her husband's parents to go shopping.
Half an hour later her body was discovered on a little used road.
That was Saturday and officers are trying to determine whether the 28-year-old Macon, Ga., woman took her own life or whether the wound in her body and the hole in the roof of the car came from bullets fired by someone else.
A bullet entered her right side, coursed through the body and emerged on the left side.
She had been visiting her husband's parents, Mr. and Mrs. John Zorzi. Her husband, a salesman, left Tuesday on a business trip to Canada.
Peace Justice Eloy Delgado explained no ruling on how she met death could be given until further details had been pieced together.
