Update: The Cocke County Sheriff’s Office says two people have been found dead inside a car.
Sheriff C.J. Ball says the car was found yesterday (Sunday) along Hollow Road in Cosby and the bodies were too decomposed to identify.
Their bodies have been sent for autopsy to determine their identities but they are believed to be the two missing firefighters out of Georgia. The fire station there has confirmed their deaths in a Facebook post.
No other details have been released and the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation is assisting in this case.
Original Story: Knoxville, TN (WOKI) Police in Tennessee and Georgia are asking for help finding two missing firefighters.
Officials with the Hinesville, Georgia Police Department say firefighters Raegan Anderson and Chandler Kuhbander were reported missing out of Hinesville and could be in Tennessee.
Police say they could be driving Anderson’s car, a black 2017 Ford Focus, and that one of their phones “pinged” in the East Tennessee area.
Officials with the Cocke County Sheriff’s Office confirmed with our news partner, WVLT, that CCSO is looking for the same car, in case the pair are in the area.
