Lee County D.A.: Human remains found believed to be Walt Harris’ missing stepdaughter Aniah Blanchard

The search for UFC heavyweight Walt Harris’ missing stepdaughter Aniah Blanchard has likely come to a tragic end.

Lee County District Attorney Brandon Hughes said in a statement first released to CBS 42 in Alabama that human remains have been discovered that authorities believe are the 19-year-old college student who was first reported missing over a month ago.

“I can confirm that human remains have been found and we have good reason to suspect they are that of Aniah Blanchard,” Hughes said in the statement.

According to reports, the human remains were found off Macon County Road 2 near Shorter, Ala.
