Forty-five years after an Auburn University student vanished on his way to school, his car -- and possibly his remains -- have been recovered.
Kyle Clinkscales and his white 1974 Ford Pinto Runabout went missing on Jan. 27, 1976, when Clinkscales was on his way from LaGrange, Georgia, to Auburn University, about 45 miles away, said James Woodruff, the sheriff of Troup County, Georgia.
The 22-year-old never returned to school and his parents filed a missing persons report, Woodruff said.
The sheriff's office has searched for Clinkscales and his car for 45 years, following hundreds of leads, though nothing substantial ever developed, Woodruff said.
