Details from the previous story are below:

A missing person call in Barrow County Wednesday morning led investigators to the body of a man in the trunk of a vehicle.

Barrow County Sheriff's Capt. Ryan Sears said in a press release that deputies responded to the call at 311 Chimney Trace Drive in Winder around 7:35 a.m. 

"Upon arrival, deputies made contact with Anthony Woschula, 34, of Winder, who then fled on foot because of possible drug charges and was apprehended with the assistance of a K-9," Sears said in the statement.

Sears said as they talked with Woschula, investigators were able to find out he knew the location of the missing person and might have caused that person's death. 

"Deputies were informed the missing person was in the trunk of a vehicle and it was located at Whitley Road and Kilcrease Road in Gwinnett County," Sears wrote.

When deputies arrived at that scene, they found a gold Toyota Camry and found a body in the trunk.

Sears said Woschula is considered a suspect in the death of the person.

The identity of the victim has not yet been released.
