		</div><p>Australian police found a body today they suspect is the only casualty among three people who became stranded in the outback almost two weeks ago.</p>
<p><!--Ads1--></p>
<p>Police have yet to formally confirm the remains found south of the town of Alice Springs are those of Claire Hockridge, 46.</p>
<p>Police have not revealed details of the circumstances of the death, which will be investigated by a coroner, a police statement said.</p>
<p>Ms Hockeridge, her partner Tamra McBeath-Riley, 52, and their companion Phu Tran, 40, were in an SUV that became bogged in a dry riverbed during an afternoon sightseeing drive on November 19.</p>
<p>McBeath-Riley, who had been driving and became lost, decided last Thursday to stay at a salty waterhole with the couple’s Staffordshire terrier while her companions attempted to trek towards a highway.</p>
<p>They were carrying water and were planning to walk at night to avoid the desert heat, which came close to 40 degrees Celsius in recent days.</p>
<p>By that stage they had spent nine nights in the open with biscuits, instant noodles, bottled water and cans of pre-mixed vodka to sustain them.</p>

<p>Ms McBeath-Riley and the dog were rescued by a search helicopter on Sunday after a cattle rancher alerted police to suspicious tire tracks, which led searchers to the abandoned pickup truck.</p>
<p>Mr Tran was found by cattle rancher Ted Fogarty on Tuesday. Mr Tran and Ms McBeath-Riley were both treated at an Alice Springs hospital for dehydration and exposure.</p>
