Body of Missing EM Lyon Student Flynn Ganneval Found in the Yzeron

Prosecutors report no sign of third‑party involvement, with an autopsy pending to determine the cause of death.

Overview

  • The 19-year-old Austrian was recovered on Nov. 13 near Oullins–Pierre-Bénite and formally identified by police forensic teams.
  • The Lyon prosecutor said no lesions were observed and current findings do not indicate an external attack.
  • An autopsy has been ordered to clarify the circumstances, and investigators currently favor an accidental fall into the water.
  • Ganneval disappeared during Halloween-night outings after separating from friends near Confluence clubs around 12:40 a.m.
  • The search drew an unusual mobilization with drones, canine teams, a boat and privately funded specialists, supported by an online fundraiser exceeding €100,000.
