Missing 411? Woman mysteriously leaves hotel room in middle of night, body found in lake days later

A woman visiting South Florida from Salt Lake City, Utah, was found dead near the hotel where she was staying.

Police were seen early Saturday afternoon removing a body from a large lake that is adjacent to the Fort Lauderdale Westin, located at 400 Corporate Drive.

Authorities later confirmed that the deceased woman was Kelly Glover, who was in South Florida on business and staying at the Westin.

Glover's husband, Adam Bremer, told Local 10 News on Friday that her disappearance was very bizarre.

"Her friend went to bed early (Wednesday)," Bremer said. "My wife was still up. Her friend woke up around 4 a.m. (Thursday), and my wife was nowhere to be found, and the door was left open."

Hotel surveillance footage shows Glover was barefoot, going down a stairwell at 2 a.m. on Thursday. Bremer said Glover doesn't have a history of sleepwalking.

"She didn't have her phone or her purse," Bremer said. "She left it in the room and that's the last we've seen of her. We text each other every morning. I get up before her. I hadn't heard from her by 9 a.m. I knew something was wrong, sent a few more. The second her friend called me, I already knew."

Police had been searching the hotel's surrounding area for Glover since Friday, but found nothing despite utilizing K-9 units, helicopters and eventually, divers.

According to Fort Lauderdale police, detectives do not suspect foul play, but the exact cause of death has not yet been determined by medical examiners. An investigation is ongoing.

Kelly Glover's relatives said she vanished on Thursday from the Westin Hotel in Fort Lauderdale.

I wonder if Kelly was taking Ambien or one of the other hypnotics to help her sleep...

Then she would have been sleeping instead of out walking

gail People sometimes do crazy things in their "sleep" when on Ambien (or similar medications).

I think they need to look into both what these missing and dead people did for a living, as well as what they may have been doing prior to their incidents.

My wife at one point was on Ambien and we had complete conversations, watched TV together etc... and the next morning she couldn't remember any of it at all because she wasn't really awake. It was absolutely impossible to tell she was knocked out on Ambien It took months before we realized how much missing time she had and how many things she didn't remember doing. Ambien is a very scary sleep med, at least for my wife.
