Deceased/Not Found NC - Anthony Jaworsky, 29, car found on I-40, Catawba Co, 13 Jul 2021

  • #21
The warrant is for a search of a property located on Curley’s Fish Camp Road near Highway 70.
That's about 25 miles west on I-40 from where his car was found. US70 and I-40 run parallel through this part of NC.

ETA His car was found in Iredell Co. He lives in Catawba Co. and the residence searched is in Burke Co. Maybe that explains why both Catawba and Burke Co. LE were there.

Well, okay, then. It doesn't say that Ortiz admitted killing, just burying him. Awful.
We'll see...

The deceased has not been identified. Chief Lofton said the grave was not recent. It’s not clear how long the body had been there. No charges have been filed.
