SALINA, Kan. (AP) - A Saline County man has been arrested in the death of his wife, who was reported missing last week.

The body of 28-year-old Kandi L. Sprague was found Monday on the two-acre property in rural northeast Saline County where she lived with her husband.

Saline County Undersheriff Daven Dunstan says her husband was arrested on a warrant charging him with first-degree murder. He was scheduled to make a first court appearance Wednesday.

Dunstan says a relative reported Kandi Sprague missing on July 29.

The Salina Journal reports that Dunstan would not release other details about the case, except to say it was not Sprague's husband who reported her missing.

Neighbors say the couple has three school-aged children.
