COLONIA, Micronesia, Nov. 21 (UPI) -- A college student working as a Seventh-day Adventist volunteer in Micronesia was found dead, victim of an apparent attack during a morning run, the church said.
Kirsten Elizabeth Wolcott disappeared Wednesday, Adventist News Network reported. Her body was found in a wooded area near the school on the island of Yap, where she taught.
She had been stabbed.
Church officials said they have been advised of an arrest.
Wolcott, 20, had taken a year's leave from Southern Adventist University in Collegedale, Tenn., to teach on Yap. She was an education major and was known for her love of running and of music, which included playing the harp and singing in Southern's women's chorus.
