The investigation into a teenager's murder lands in Dallas County. 

15-year-old Khighla Parks from Willard was found in Truman Lake earlier this month.

Authorities in Benton County say investigators have pieced together that Khighla was last seen in Buffalo and believe she may have met with foul play there.

Her body had been weighted down and put into Truman Lake. It came loose and was found by boaters a couple of weekends ago.

Khighla left her house September 20-th for a walk around Highways A-B and E-E.

Authorities are asking for any help in this investigation.
