Hempstead County Investigators and Detectives from the Hope Police Department continues to process the vehicles discovered in the Little River on Tuesday. No evidence as of yet has been obtained as to the ownership of the first vehicle. The first vehicle was so deteriorated that when being pulled from the water it broke into two pieces, that vehicle was searched at the river and investigators discovered no evidence of Human remains in that vehicle.

Late last night after recovering the second vehicle it was towed to the Sheriff’s impound yard by Red River Service so Investigators and Detectives could begin processing it on Wednesday.

Investigators and Detectives began early Wednesday morning sifting through the mud that had settled in the vehicle. Searching for any evidence that the vehicle may have contained human remains, as of this time no evidence has been discovered to support human remains being in the 2nd vehicle, a 1989 Toyota. Investigators were able to determine the Toyota was last registered in 1991.

The investigation is ongoing and as information becomes available it will be released.
