Prosecutors in Philadelphia say remains found buried in a wooded area behind an abandoned school are those of Kada Scott, a 23-year-old woman who’d been missing for about two weeks. Police have said an anonymous tip led police back to the area they'd previously searched and they found the remains in a shallow grave.

The missing 23-year-old’s identity was confirmed through DNA testing, Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner said at a Monday news conference.

DNA testing strongly indicates the human remains found behind a vacant school Saturday are those of missing Philadelphia woman Kada Scott, sources tell Action News.

Authorities say a man arrested in the disappearance of a Philadelphia woman who went missing from her nursing home job was charged earlier this year in a similar case.

King was also arrested and charged earlier this year with kidnapping and strangulation in relation to another woman.

Philadelphia police announced a suspect was charged in connection to the disappearance of a 23-year-old Kada Scott, who has been missing since Oct. 4.

Authorities confirmed that the human remains found at an abandoned middle school in Philadelphia over the weekend belong to Kada Scott, the 23-year-old woman who has been missing since early October
