Jennifer L. Hicks, a credit union teller and marketing director missing since Feb. 9 and wanted by police on an alleged theft charge, died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, a Kentucky television station reported Friday.

WPSD of Paducah sourced its information from Calloway County Coroner Rick Harris who conducted an autopsy Friday morning.

“At this time in the investigation, we don't feel there is any foul play, however, the investigation is ongoing,” Kentucky State Trooper Michael Robichaud told CU Times.

Police said Hicks' body was found in her car, which was parked inside a self-storage facility in Murray.

“Lake Chem would like to extend their deepest sympathies to the family and friends of Jennifer Hicks! She was loved by all and will be greatly missed!” the $52 million federal credit union based in Benton said in a statement posted on its Facebook site. 

Hicks, 31, left the credit union's branch in Murray at about noon on Feb. 9 to check on her eight-year-old daughter, according to the Calloway County Sheriff.

At approximately 12:45 p.m., her vehicle was seen on Kentucky Route 94 heading east bound.

That was the last time Hicks and her vehicle were seen, police said.

On Feb. 15, Lake Chem issued a bulletin statement on its website and Facebook page stating it discovered irregularities in some of its records, which may affect the accuracy of year-end reports for some members. The credit union did not say how many of its 10,215 members were affected.

On Feb. 16, Kentucky State Police issued a warrant to arrest Hicks for alleged “theft by failure to make required disposition of property (of) over $10,000, a Class C felony.”
