Persons of interest questioned in connection with missing pregnant woman

Persons of interest are being questioned following the disappearance of a pregnant woman from Little Village three weeks ago, Chicago police said.

Marlen Ochoa-Uriostegui, 19, has been missing since April 23 and is nine months pregnant. She was last seen in the 2000 block of South California Avenue, according to a high-risk missing person alert from Chicago police.

Her family requested a DNA test to see if a baby abandoned in a Northwest Side alley May 7 was Ochoa-Uriostegui’s, but it wasn’t.

Another pregnant woman, 26-year-old Kierra Coles, has been missing since Oct. 2.
