A body matching the description of missing woman Gabby Petito has been found by crews searching a national park in the US state of Wyoming.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

“As every parent can imagine, this is an incredibly difficult time for her family,” FBI agent Charles Jones told the media, choking back tears.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

“The cause of death has not been determined,” he added.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Ms Petito, 22, was visiting the Grand Teton National Park with her fianc\u00e9, Brian Laundrie, when she disappeared.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Mr Laundrie was declared a “person of interest” in the case, but not charged with any crime. He declined to speak to police, and disappeared a few days later.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

The FBI said that while forensic examinations were yet to “confirm 100%” that the human remains were those of Ms Petito, they were consistent with her description.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Ms Petito’s father, Joseph, posted a photo of his daughter on Twitter<\/a> shortly after the news conference.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

Mr Laundrie and Ms Petito had set out on a nomadic cross-country campervan trip in July, documenting their adventures on social media.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

They filmed themselves smiling, kissing, and running on beaches\u00a0in a YouTube video<\/a>\u00a0which has now been viewed more than 2.3 million times.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

But on 1 September, after a month of travelling, Mr Laundrie returned home to Florida with their white van and without Ms Petito. Her family reported her missing 10 days later.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

On Friday, police said Mr Laundrie’s family told them they had not seen their son since Tuesday, and that investigators were “frustrated” by the developments.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

A search team spent the weekend scouring a 25,000 acre wildlife reserve in Florida for signs of Mr Laundrie with police dogs and drones, but as of Sunday evening nothing had been found.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
