Skeleton found in trunk of submerged vehicle

The Post and Courier
Thursday, July 3, 2008


Skeletal remains found in the trunk of a vehicle raised Thursday morning from an undisclosed body of water could be related to a missing persons case, Charleston County Sheriff Al Cannon said.

However, Cannon is not releasing many details about the case.

Divers located the vehicle Wednesday afternoon at a boat landing after investigators, along with Mount Pleasant police, developed information about an “individual reported missing some years ago,” by a girlfriend, Cannon said.

She couldn’t provide a lot of information, but told investigators the man could have skipped town or could have been the victim of a crime, Cannon said.

This was found in McClellanville last night and pulled out of the water after midnight.

Who has been missing? Could this be that poor woman that worked at Alex's?

Nevermind, they do know that it was a man.

Wow how sad I do hope they can identify the person, and hopefully the family can have some closure.

Would love to know who this is so P/C please keep the public inform on the findings of this mystery.
