A Nebraska teenager has been found dead after he went missing Friday.



Sunday afternoon, a group of volunteers found
the body of 16-year-old Brandon Kamphaus of Fremont, Nebraska in a
wooded area not far from where his car was discovered on Friday.


The teenager had been last seen getting ready
for school at his house Friday morning, but Kamphaus, who has diabetes,
