Body of missing American found

? Philippine authorities on Wednesday found the body of a missing American Peace Corps volunteer in a northern mountain town where she disappeared during a hike more than a week ago, an army general said.

Maj. Gen. Rodrigo Maclang told The Associated Press the body of Julia Campbell, 40, from Fairfax, Va., was found buried with one foot protruding from the ground near the village of Batad.

Campbell went missing April 8 in the area about 160 miles north of Manila. Police said they believed foul play was involved.
