A child's body found in a central Indiana pond has been identified as that of a 4-year-old girl who vanished last week after she wandered away from her home, a coroner said.

Hendricks County Coroner Rick Morphew said Monday that the body is that of Fiedwenya Fiefe, who went missing Thursday. Her body was found Friday in a retention pond at a housing subdivision in Plainfield, just west of Indianapolis.

Morphew said an autopsy had been performed but the cause and manner of Fiefe's death will not be known for four to six weeks, The Indianapolis Star reported.
