Body of missing teen found in tractor-trailer

Authorities have found the body of a missing teen in the back of a tractor-trailer in Kansas City, Kansas.
17-year-old Jasmine Mills, of Olathe, had been missing for two days when her remains were found Saturday morning in an 
industrial area near the Kansas River.

Her mother, Deanna Peters, says her daughter was supposed to go do some odd jobs
for an adult friend when she was last seen.

Peters says the friend that Jasmine was supposed to be working for told her that Jasmine
never arrived.

Peters is waiting for police to determine what caused her
daughter's death.

Police in Kansas City, Kansas, and Olathe are investigating. Olathe police have
released little information except to say the death is suspicious.
