Victim: Louise M. Weyandt, age 35
Location: Base of the Penn Street Bridge, City of Reading
Date/Time Incident Discovered/Occurred: April 9, 1993.
Synopsis: On April 9, 1993, Louise, 35, of 154 Walnut St. was found nude with five large rocks piled on top of her at the base of a Penn Street Bridge support by three men going to fish in the Schuylkill River there that day. The cause of death was compression of the neck and chest caused by the rocks put on top of her while she was lying there, according to the Berks County coroner's office. The homicide was one of the more unusual of the roughly 200 slayings in the city since 1990. The rocks used to kill Weyandt and cover her body were heavy.

Weyandt was seen leaving her residence about 11 p.m. the night before heading to a store in the 300 block of Penn Street for cigarettes. She was also seen a short time later in the block with two males. The crime scene yielded DNA and other evidence.
