NEW ORLEANS (AP) - New Orleans police said Thursday they are investigating the slaying of a 25-year-old San Francisco community activist found shot in the head in a hurricane-battered part of the city.

Kirsten Brydum had arrived in the city two days before her body was found Saturday morning in a desolate part of the city's 9th Ward neighborhood, said Marlon Defillo, assistant superintendent of the New Orleans Police Department. People in the area to gut a Katrina-damaged home found the body.

Police hadn't identified suspects or a possible motive for the homicide, Defillo said.

Brydum was an organizer of a monthly San Francisco gathering at which people exchanged goods and services called the Really Really Free Market, according to its Web site.
