AUBURN, Ala. (AP) - Authorities say a body found in Auburn has been identified as that of a male college student missing since August.
Lee County Coroner Bill Harris says fingerprints show that the body discovered in a shed on Sunday is that of 22-year-old Chih-Kai Lai. He was a Taiwanese student attending Auburn University.
