The car from the creek was brought to the Troup County Sheriff’s Office after being pulled from the water, and the Georgia Bureau of Investigation is currently working to “determine the contents of the vehicle.”
At a later news conference, Sheriff James Woodruff stated there were human remains found inside of Kyle’s car, but they have not positively identified those remains as Kyle.
