Body found in Germantown believed to be Kada Scott

A body was found this evening at the closed Ada H.H. Lewis Middle School in Germantown which Deputy Police Commissioner John Stanford said Philadelphia police believe to be the body of Kada Scott.

Scott, 23, was reported missing two weeks ago. Police searched for her in the hopes she was still alive and earlier this week arrested the last person known to have been seen with her, 21-year-old Keon King. Scott, a Penn State grad from Mount Airy, was reported missing after she left for an overnight shift at the nursing home in Chestnut Hill where she worked.
