Sunken Cars Held Human Bodies
BALDWIN: So, here's a strange story. Police divers, just training in a lake in Oklahoma, found two sunken cars. These are very old cars. They figured both were stolen. But then they found three bodies in the first car and then three more bodies in the other car. In all, six human bodies were found in Foss Lake. This is just west of Oklahoma City. I want to take you there live now. Standing by for us is Patti Moon of CNN affiliate KOCO. So, Patti, set the scene for me. Tell me what's happening out there right now.</s>PATTI MOON, KOCO REPORTER: Good afternoon, Brooke. A gruesome discovery here at Foss Lake. We are in western Oklahoma. I want to show you what's happening behind me now. You can see that Custer County deputies are collecting as much evidence as possible from these two cars. As you said, the two cars were first thought stolen. They were then pulled from the lake yesterday and deputies found the skeletal remains of up to six people. Now, the Custer County sheriff has been poring over missing persons reports and they have been doing everything possible to try to find out who the owners of these two cars were and who were in these cars. Right now, the Custer County sheriff thinks that one of the cars belonged to a 16-year-old Jimmy Williams who went missing in 1970. He may have been in his car with two other teenagers. 18-year-old Leah Johnson and 18-year-old Thomas Rios. We were in Sayer (ph), Oklahoma, earlier today, and we actually did see that Jimmy Williams was in the Sayer High School year book in 1969 and 1970. A lot of people in Sayer talking about this case and remembering how these three teenagers disappeared just so suddenly. Now, the other car still remains a bit of a mystery. But I did speak with a woman earlier today. She tells me that she thinks her grandfather was in that car. He is a John Alby Porter (ph) who went missing with two friends in 1969. Now, right now, all deputies have to deal with are really just skeletal remains, so this is a very delicate process. They say basically what they're going to have to do is compare DNA evidence of living relatives with the skeletal remains that are here. But the Custer County sheriff stresses that this is a very important process. He is hoping to get some closure for these families that have not known what happened to their loved ones for more than 40 years. Brooke, back to you.</s>BALDWIN: Can you imagine, decades later, and here you have the cars behind you, still encased in the mud, in the muck, through the years, found on a training exercise. Patti Moon, thank you so much. Fosse Lake, Oklahoma. And now to this. In less than two weeks, the government shuts down if President Obama and Republicans do not reach a deal to fund the government. And today, boy, oh, boy, a war of words shows they are nowhere close. Plus, right now, bus passengers are fighting to live after a train collides with a double-decker. You will hear what crews found on that scene, next.
