Kada Scott's remains have been found in a wooded area behind an abandoned school in East Germantown. 

Kada, 23, was last seen shortly after arriving for a shift at an assisted living facility in Chestnut Hill.  

Police began searching the area on Saturday, Oct. 18, near the vacant Ada H. Lewis Middle School for Scott after receiving a "very specific" anonymous tip at around 10 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 17, authorities said.

Police previously searched the area of the school and arboretum in the Germantown neighborhood of Philadelphia but reported only finding some physical evidence, without commenting on what evidence was uncovered. Community members voice anger and frustration at police while gathering behind the crime scene tape during the search on Saturday, saying they could have found the body sooner.

Investigators discover a person of interest. As the investigation continued, police determined 23-year-old Keon King of Dover, Delaware, is now a suspect. 

Keon King had a criminal record prior to his alleged involvement in Scott’s kidnapping. Investigators say King kidnapped and assaulted another victim earlier in the year.
