Two Georgia firefighters who vanished soon after ending their “toxic” relationship have been found dead nearly 400 miles away from home, according to family and cops.
The bodies of high school sweethearts Raegan Anderson and Chandler Kuhbander, both 24, were found along with Anderson’s black 2017 Ford Focus in Cocke County, Tennesee, on Sunday, according to police in their Georgia hometown of Hinesville.
Further details on the discovery – including the pair’s causes of death – were not immediately available, the authorities said.
Anderson and Kuhbander, who worked together at Liberty County Fire Services, were last seen together in Anderson’s car in the parking lot of a Crunch gym in Savannah early June 24.
“At 11:40 my son walks out of the building and he looks very comfortable, like he just had his workout,” Kuhbander’s mom, Jane, told WJCL.
“He doesn’t look rushed as he walks through the parking lot. After that, we don’t see him again,” she said.
The pair dated for several years after meeting in high school, but recently split after a “toxic” relationship, the worried mom told CourtTV last week.
Two days before they disappeared, police responded to a report of a domestic issue at an Olive Garden in Pooler, Georgia, WJCL explained.
Anderson had supposedly walked into the restaurant and confronted Kuhbander while he was on a date before keying his car, the outlet said.
She was charged with second-degree criminal damage to property and disorderly conduct.
Around 10 a.m. on June 24, Kuhbander called his mother and said that Anderson was “blowing up” his phone and threatening to kill herself, Jane claimed, adding: “And, it’s not the first time that she’s done it.”
When police went to Anderson’s home after the couple disappeared, they found the door unlocked along with a note that indicated she may have wanted to harm herself, WJCL said.
Liberty County Fire Services said it was ”deeply saddened” by the news.
“These two extremely dedicated employees put their hearts and souls into protecting and serving the citizens of Liberty County,” the statement read.
“Our prayers, and those of the department, are with the families during this most difficult time.”
The investigation into Anderson and Kuhbander’s deaths is still ongoing, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation told The Post Tuesday.
