HICKORY, N.C. — A prosthetic leg found in western North Carolina belonged to a 10-year-old girl who has been missing for weeks, police said Monday.

The Hickory Police Department said the artificial left leg belonged to Zahra Baker, who lost her own leg to bone cancer. Zahra’s father reported her missing Oct. 9. Authorities believe she is dead.

Searchers found the leg at a home where Zahra’s stepmother once lived. Elisa Baker, 42, has been jailed on an obstruction-of-justice charge.
