IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) -- Police are investigating whether a body found Friday is that of a 10-year-old girl who authorities said vanished with a registered sex offender.
Cedar Rapids police canceled an Amber Alert for Jetseta Marie Gage after the body was found in rural Johnson County but said a positive identification of the body had not been made. Police did not say if it was the body of a child.
Police say the suspect Roger Paul Bentley, 37, a family acquaintance, and his vehicle were found in Johnson County at 7 a.m. Friday and placed into police custody. He is accused of taking Jetseta from her mother's house in nearby Cedar Rapids Thursday night.
Bentley is registered as an Iowa Sex Offender and was convicted in 1994 for lascivious acts with a child.
