Posted

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) – Investigators believe they have found the body of Mollie Tibbetts, a University of Iowa student who has been missing for more than a month.
    
The 20-year-old woman was last seen July 18, jogging in her hometown of Brooklyn in central Iowa.
    
Greg Willey, the vice president of Crime Stoppers of Central Iowa, says a body found Tuesday is believed to be Tibbetts.
    
No information has been released about where the body was found.
    
Willey says a nearly $400,000 reward fund for her discovery will now become a reward for information leading to the capture of any suspects.
