Authorities in Alabama believe they have discovered the remains of a missing 19-year-old student Aniah Blanchard, CBS affiliate WRBL reported. Blanchard, the stepdaughter of UFC heavyweight star Walt Harris, was reported missing by her family on October 24.
“I can confirm that human remains have been found and we have good reason to suspect they are that of Aniah Blanchard,” said District Attorney Brandon Hughes.
The remains were discovered near the New Hope Baptist Church in Macon County.
Police have arrested two suspects: Antwon “Squirmy” Fisher, 35, and Ibraheem Yazeed, 30. A judge issued a gag order in the case, preventing authorities from discussing it.
