A South Carolina man who was reported missing last week was later arrested after he was found alongside human remains, police said.

Charles Antwine Jr., 56, and Christy Ward were reported missing from a home in Brunswick County. A deputy discovered a submerged vehicle at Lynches River boat landing in Riverside Cemetery on June 14, which was later linked to Antwine and an address near Lake City, The Post and Courier reported.

No individuals were found in the submerged vehicle. Deputies carrying out a welfare check at the residence reportedly detected a strange odor and got no response when they knocked on the door. After securing a search warrant, police entered the residence and found Antwine sitting on a couch, as reported by The Post and Courier.

Florence County police said they discovered human remains inside containers that were taped shut.

According to Florence County Sheriff TJ Joye, officers “found some containers with body parts in them where they appeared to be cut up,” he told WMBF. “It’s something like out of a horror movie. Very horrific.”

Ward is still missing as the remains are pending identification.

Meanwhile, Antwine is charged with desecrating human remains. He remains jailed without bond as police expect to file additional criminal charges.
