Teen Death Under Investigation

A 15-year-old Aliso Niguel High student is found early Saturday near a parking structure in Aliso Viejo. It appears to be a suicide, officials says.

The apparent suicide of a 15-year-old Aliso Niguel High student was under investigation Monday, officials said.

The girl, identified as Sydney Rohde, was found around 1:30 a.m. Saturday near a parking structure at 130 Vantis, according to Orange County Sheriff's Department spokesman Jim Amormino.

"There was nothing suspicious and the coroner is still investigating," Amormino said. "It appears to be a suicide. It is always sad when this happens, especially to someone so young. Nothing is ever that bad that it can't be resolved."
