Father, Son On Scavenger Hunt Find Woman's Body
Detectives Believe Foul Play Factor In Woman's Death

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. -- A father and son on a scavenger hunt found a woman's body in a beachfront park, forcing the evacuation of the recreation area, sheriff's officials said.

The woman was in her 20s or 30s, and was from the area, said sheriff's officials, who declined to identify her until her family could be notified.

Detectives believed foul play was a factor in her death, said Palm Beach County Sheriff's spokeswoman Diane Carhart.

The woman, who was found in the woods near the parking lot, appeared to have died recently. An autopsy was scheduled for Monday, said Capt. Kenneth Reischer.

Police wrapped yellow crime-scene tape across the park's entrance, searched vehicles, and told about 50 beachgoers to leave the area.

The father and son who found the body were not identified, but Reischer said they were participating in an Internet-based scavenger hunt.
