Police have linked the disappearance of a Florida teen with the murder of a senior citizen.
Florida officials now believe that the April 22 disappearance of Morgan Amanda Leppert, 15, of San Mateo, Fla., is linked to the murder of a 66-year-old Melrose, Fla., man found dead on Thursday, according to a news release by the Putnam County Sheriff's Office.
The body of James Thomas Stewart was found Thursday morning in his Melrose home by Putnam County Sheriff's deputies, the department said. It was apparent that foul play had occurred, officials said. Police linked Leppert's disappearance to the death after finding Stewart's phone number on a phone belonging to the teen. An Amber Alert was issued April 22 for Leppert and her 22-year-old boyfriend Toby Lee Lowry. Police believe Lowery stole Stewart's 2003 Toyota Tacoma with the Florida license plate 193 KLR.
Storms rolled across Arkansas, killing at least three people including a teenager crushed by a tree while she slept, officials said Friday, while the region remained on alert and a tornado was spotted touching down south of Little Rock just before 1 p.m. ET. Earlier, storms late Thursday and early Friday seriously damaged homes and businesses in the Kansas City, Mo., area, and tornadoes were also reported in Oklahoma and Texas, although there were no immediate reports of severe damage. In Siloam Springs, Ark., a 15-year-old girl was killed when a tree fell through her home. A 10-year-old boy survived the tragedy.
