The latter was taken into custody, but the agents were not at the end of their surprises when they searched the trunk of the vehicle of the suspect, 54 years old. “Further investigation after the arrest revealed a deceased woman, which has not yet been identified with certainty, located inside the vehicle“, announced the Kentucky police.
