READING, Pa. (AP) - October 2, 2008 Berks County District Attorney John Adams said Thursday that 32-year-old Julio Lastra was found in Prince George County, Virginia.

Police have been looking for Lastra since he fled on foot from a traffic stop in suburban Harrisburg a week ago. The body of 41-year-old Marisol Rivera of Frystown was found in the trunk of the car.

Police say Rivera was the sister of Lastra's ex-girlfriend.

Police say Lastra also stole a car that was later found abandoned in Baltimore.
