FRANKFURT — An American student who disappeared in November most likely fell drunkenly into the city's Main River, Frankfurt police said Friday.
Devon Hollahan, 22, who had been teaching English in Prague since July, was traveling back to a hostel after a concert with a friend, who stopped to ask for directions at about 3 a.m. on Nov. 21. When the friend turned back around, Hollahan was gone.
Police said in a statement that dogs traced Holllahan's trail to the banks of the river, and that authorities found a shoe believed to be his in the waters.
Police said they "have to assume that Devon Hollahan, in a helpless state in connection with alcohol, fell into the Main."
