Some sad news to report.
The remains of Aniah Blanchard, the stepdaughter of UFC fighter Walt Harris, were found today by local police.
Blanchard, who’s been missing since Oct. 23rd, had been missing as a result of kidnapping.
Days after her disappearance, officials had found Aniah’s car, which was covered in blood … and believed she had suffered a fatal injury during the kidnapping.
Police say 3 suspects have some sort of connection to Blanchard’s kidnapping and tragic death, most notably, the prime suspect Ibraheem Yazeed.
Cops hunted down Ibraheem Yazeed — the prime suspect — who was seen at the gas station with Blanchard in the moments before her abduction. He was arrested in Florida after leading cops on a pursuit and suffered a busted eye during the apprehension. He’s since been charged with 1st-degree kidnapping.
