Police in Maryland are investigating after a van was found submerged in water with human remains inside.

The team found the van about 22 feet underwater and used lines to pull it out, then found human remains inside, according to police.
Police said the van and body’s condition suggests they had been submerged in the water for years. Investigators found the vehicle was reported missing in 2014.

The remains have not been identified and the medical examiner is working to determine a cause of death.
