Two American tourists who police say were attacked -- one fatally -- while hiking in Germany were identified as recent graduates of the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, according to the school.
Eva Liu, 21, was allegedly attacked by a 30-year-old American man she had met while hiking near one of Germany’s most popular tourist sights, Neuschwanstein Castle, on Wednesday, according to Bavarian authorities. A friend who was with her, Kelsey Chang, 22, attempted to rescue Liu but was pushed down a steep slope. Investigators say the man then attempted to commit a “sexual offense” on Liu before he pushed her down the slope too, causing her to fall about 50 meters below her friend.
“Our University of Illinois family is mourning the senseless death of Ms. Liu and the attack on Ms. Chang,” said Robin Kaler, associate chancellor at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. “Both had just graduated in May and should have been able to celebrate such an important accomplishment without the fear of such a tragic outcome.” Liu and Chang had both attended high school at the Illinois Mathematics and Science Academy, a residential school in Aurora, the school said in a statement.
