UPDATE, THU, 3:00 PM:Authorities in Mississippi say an autopsy performed on a slain Illinois State University student did not reveal the cause of her death.

Dolores Lewis of the Mississippi Highway Patrol says the autopsy performed October 21st on the remains of 21-year-old Olamide Adeyooye was inconclusive.

Lewis says police from Normal, Ill, authorities in Mississippi, and the FBI are all trying to find out what led to Adeyooye's death. The ISU senior was last seen two weeks ago renting a movie at a video store near her off-campus apartment in Normal.

Meanwhile, ISU students say they are not taking their safety for granted. They are now locking door and walking in groups at night.
