SPRINGFIELD, MO – Police believe they’ve found the body of a missing 10-year-old girl.

Hailey Owens disappeared Tuesday after witnesses say someone in a truck grabbed her. 45-year-old Craig Michael Wood was arrested and charged with first-degree murder.

The body, believed to be Hailey’s, was found in Wood’s home.

Turns out, Wood has worked in the city’s public school system as a paraprofessional and athletic coach since 1998.

It’s still not clear if Hailey knew Wood.

According to the Superintendent for Springfield public schools, Wood’s employment has been suspended until the criminal investigation is resolved.

Now, investigators continue to piece together this terrible case hoping to find answers for Hailey’s family.
