NIAGARA FALLS, N.Y. (AP) — Authorities say a 5-year-old western New York girl who went missing near a relative’s home has been found dead.

Police and relatives of Isabella Sarah Tennant tell local media outlets that officers found her body this morning a few blocks from where she was last seen alive late Sunday night in the city of Niagara Falls.

The girl was reported missing by family members around 6 a.m. Monday. Media reports say a neighbor was the last person to see her, and that the neighbor is being questioned by investigators.

No other information has been released by police. They have scheduled a news conference for 2 p.m. today.
