Three people are dead in separate suspicious incidents that were discovered early Tuesday evening in Escambia County, Ala. Now, law enforcement is asking for the public’s help in locating a vehicle believed to be involved in one of those deaths.

Escambia County Chief Deputy Mike Lambert said local, county and state law enforcement officers are currently investigating the discoveries – one in the area of Ewing Pond Road in Atmore and another in Flomaton.

Lambert confirmed a body was located near the Poarch exit in Atmore. The incident is being treated as a homicide.

“We have identified a person of interest in the incident and are asking people to be on the lookout for a 1992 silver Ford F-150, with the Escambia County tag No. 30BK659,” Lambert said. “It may have a tool box and could have a maroon spot down the sides of vehicle. Unknown direction of travel.

Anyone coming into contact with vehicle, contact local law enforcement or the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office at 251-809-2154.”

In a simultaneous, unrelated incident, deputies assisted Flomaton police after reports of two deaths – one on Evelyn Street in the Holt Subdivision and another two miles away on College Street – were called into 911.

FPD Chief Bryan Davis said the case has been turned over the state bureau of investigation Tuesday night.
