Kentucky State Police are working to confirm the identity of a body found in the vicinity where a suspect opened fire nearly two weeks ago on vehicles on Interstate-75 near exit 49, injuring multiple people before fleeing into the woods and evading authorities.

"Kentucky State Police troopers have located a body in the vicinity of exit 49 in Laurel County and detectives are working to confirm the identity," Kentucky State Trooper Scotting Pennington said in a statement posted on X.

The update came as a couple near exit 49 stumbled upon what appeared to be a dead body in the woods while livestreaming for the YouTube account, "Hatfield McCoy Museum Adventures."

"He’s deteriorated!" a man can be heard upon making the discovery.
