(KANSAS CITY, Kansas) - CNN reports that police in Kansas who are searching for missing teen Kelsey Smith in Overland Park, Kansas, reportedly find a body just over the Missouri border.

The discovery was made just outside of Kansas City in an area where two nature trails come together.

The 18-year old has been missing since Saturday, June 2nd. She was last seen leaving the Target store just south of Oak Park Mall at 7:00 PM.

Smith, a recent Shawnee Mission West High School graduate, was expected to drive directly home from the Target store but never made it.

Police have released a video of a young man who they are calling a person of interest.

The man, who is approximately 6 feet tall and about 25 years old, was seen leaving the store shortly before Smith.

Her car - a 1987 two-door Buick Regal - was found June 2nd in the parking lot of Macy’s at Oak Park Mall.
