North Port, Fla. – Possible human remains were discovered inside
Florida's Myakkahatchee Creek Environmental Park on Wednesday, the
same day Chris and Roberta Laundrie, the parents of fugitive Brian
Laundrie, were inside the park when "some articles belonging to
Brian were found."

A senior law enforcement source told Fox News' David Spunt "what
appear to be human remains" were found at a site being searched by a
cadaver dog within the park. The FBI provided an update on Wednesday
evening confirming that investigators discovered what appear to be
human remains, "along with personal items, such as a backpack and
notebook belonging to Brian Laundrie," just hours after his parents
searched.

Earlier in the day, Laundrie family attorney Steven Bertolino told
to Fox News Digital the Laundries informed law enforcement on
Tuesday night of their intentions to search the park and met
officers there. Bertolino confirmed that while searching areas that
Brian frequented, "some articles belonging to Brian were found."

Officers then began conducting a more thorough search of the area,
Bertolino said. A spokesperson for the Sarasota County Medical
Examiner's Office confirmed that the office was called to the
Myakkahatchee on Wednesday.

Sarasota County's chief medical examiner, Dr. Russell Vega, told Fox
News Digital in an email that his office responded to the area "at
the request of law enforcement."

The park is now closed to the public, having reopened only Tuesday
following a weeks-long search for the fugitive.

Brian Laundrie has been named a person of interest in the
disappearance and subsequent homicide of his fiancee, Gabby Petito.
The FBI later issued a warrant for his arrest on charges related to
his unauthorized use of her bank card.

The Laundries, who have claimed their son went to Myakkahatchee on
Sept. 13, the day he was last seen, left their North Port home just
before 7:15 a.m. local time for the environmental park, where two
men in hiking gear – including at least one who later identified
himself as a law enforcement officer – began trailing behind them.

The Laundries and one of the men appeared to discuss a discovery
before the parents left the park, which was then closed to media and
the public.


During the couple's time inside, Chris Laundrie could be seen
continually moving in and out of areas of the brush. After a short
while, he and Roberta Laundrie separated, with Chris and the two men
moving into brush on the left side of the trail for approximately 12
minutes.

Chris returned without law enforcement, and the couple continued on.
The Laundries later discovered a white bag and a dark-colored object
after traveling through a patch of brambles at the edge of the brush
at a clearing. They then could be seen putting the object into the
bag and handing it over to the law enforcement officer shortly
thereafter, who later took it from them.

On their way out of the park, the couple made a phone call and then
received a call. There they were soon joined by the law enforcement
officer, who could be seen patting Chris Laundrie's shoulder as he
huddled with the couple.

The couple left the park at 8:45 a.m. The Laundries returned home
shortly thereafter, and appeared emotional when confronted by
protesters there.

Meanwhile, about a dozen uniformed law enforcement officers and
approximately six people in plainclothes could be seen entering the
park, with several police or unmarked vehicles and gators seen
entering. The North Port Mobile Command Center arrived at the park
shortly after 10:30 a.m. local time.

A spokesperson for North Port Police Department referred Fox News
Digital to the FBI for comment. An FBI spokesperson did not
immediately respond.

Chris and Roberta Laundrie said Brian, 23, left his family’s North
Port, Florida, home on Sept. 13 to hike in the Myakkahatchee Creek Environmental Park, located alongside the T. Mabry Carlton Jr.
Memorial Reserve. The Laundries' attorney had initially identified
the date of Brian's disappearance as being Sept. 14 before changing
the timeline weeks later.

Since his disappearance, state, local, county and federal law
enforcement have extensively searched the reserve and the
Myakkahatchee, where Laundrie is said to have parked his car at the
time.

His family did not announce until Sept. 17 – four days after he
allegedly left – that he had not returned.

Laundrie and 22-year-old Petito left for a trip in mid-June with the
plan to visit national parks in her white converted Ford Transit.
The couple had met years earlier on Long Island, New York, where
they grew up and later moved into the North Port home with his
Brian’s parents, Chris and Roberta.

But Brian Laundrie arrived back in North Port on Sept. 1 – with the
van, but without Petito.

Petito’s mother, Nichole Schmidt, reported her missing to Suffolk
County Police in New York on Sept. 11. Search teams discovered
Petito’s body near Wyoming's Grand Teton National Park on Sept. 19
and announced shortly thereafter that she had been the victim of a
homicide.

Authorities later said she was found to have died of "manual
strangulation."
