Dr. Zehra Attari has been missing for weeks. Her family had few clues and leads to her disappearance. The unfortunate discovery came Tuesday night as Dr. Zehra Attari’s vehicle and body out of the water.
Attari’s gray Honda Accord was pulled out of the Oakland Estuary near the Grand Marina boatyard in Alameda at the foot of Grand Street. A body was found inside and this morning family members said it was Attari.
Attari is not the the first person to have mistaken the black water where the Grand Street dead ends at the Oakland Estuary for blacktop, said Ed Vasquez a spokesman for the Attari family.
It appears that through and unfortunate turn of events, unfamiliarity were her surrounding and being an “anxious driver” led to this terrible tragedy.
