Body Of Missing Woman Found In Wrecked Vehicle
December 20, 2013
The body of an Atmore woman missing for just over three weeks was found inside her wrecked car Thursday.
The Escambia County (AL) Sheriff’s Office said 42-year old Marcie Brewton Morgan last spoke to a family member on December 3 and was believed to be in the Saraland, AL, area at the time. A “ping” from her cell phone was recorded later that day by a cell phone tower in Canoe, AL, area, east of Atmore.
Thursday, authorities and volunteers from Florida and Alabama joined with the KlaasKids Foundation, a search and rescue organization from Pensacola, in a methodical search centered in a five mile radius of that cell phone tower.
The search located Morgan’s 2001 Lincoln Town car in a ditch estimated to be 20-feet deep adjacent to Jerkins Loop Road, less than two miles from her home. After the car was removed from the ditch, authorities said a body positively identified as Morgan was found inside.
Authorities said Morgan appeared to be traveling at a high rate of speed when she ran into the ditch.
The investigation into Morgan’s death is continuing by the Escambia County (AL) Sheriff’s Office and Alabama State Troopers.
