By Mike-Ross
The Dad of missing Gabby Petito has paid a heart touching and emotional tribute to his daughter on social media following news that a body was discovered in Wyoming.
Thousands of people have been paying close attention to Gabby’s story over the past week, after she was reported as missing by her family on Saturday, September 11, having failed to make contact with them in 13 days.
The 22-year-old’s last known location was Wyoming’s Grand Teton National Park. She was on a cross-country road trip with her fiancé, Brian Laundrie, though he returned home two weeks ago without her, and then refused to talk to the police.

Latest reports say that Laundrie is now missing, and police have labeled him a “person of interest”.
For Gabby’s family, however, the heartbreak continues.
A body has been found in Wyoming, which officials have said is “consistent with the description” of the young woman.
According to CNN, a full autopsy will be conducted on Tuesday.
