Gabby Petito's Fiance Brian Laundrie Was Traced To A Camp & A Coroner Was Called In

The FBI says it found "items of interest" at the Florida site.

The FBI says it found something at a Florida camp site that might belong to Brian Laundrie, Gabby Petito's missing fiancé.

They didn't go into detail but they did call in a coroner to examine the site on Wednesday, according to the Associated Press.

The FBI said there were "items of interest" at the scene, but sources told NBC News and CBS News that human remains were also found. They didn't say who the remains belonged to.

Authorities have been searching the site all day in hopes of finding Laundrie, 23, who is still wanted as a person of interest in the death of his fiancée Petito, 22.

Laundrie and Petito originally set out on a cross-country journey in their camper van early this summer, and had planned to document the whole thing on a video blog.

But Laundrie returned home early — and alone — from that trip in September and he refused to tell anyone about what happened to Petito. He disappeared from his parents' house in Florida as the pressure intensified and police have been searching for him ever since.

Petito's body was found in a Wyoming park a few weeks ago and coroners said she died by strangulation.

Their unresolved story has become an obsession for many people around the world. They documented most of their journey on Instagram, and amateur detectives have been scanning those posts for clues about what happened.

Police also released video of a roadside stop involving the two in mid-August, and the video showed they had clearly been fighting. But the exact details of what happened to Petito — and now, Laundrie — are still a mystery.

Laundrie's car was found near the spot where police were searching on Wednesday.

His parents were also brought in to help with the search.

He has not been charged with murder.
