3 found dead near where MTV cast member missing

SISSONVILLE, W.Va. (AP) — Authorities in West Virginia say they found three people dead inside a vehicle in a rural part of West Virginia near where an MTV reality show cast member was reported missing.

Kanawha County sheriff's deputies found the vehicle near Sissonville, but they aren't releasing the victims' identities or any other details yet.

Cpl. B.D. Humphreys says the vehicle is in a muddy area that's difficult to reach.

Earlier Monday, authorities were searching the county for a missing cast member of the MTV reality show "BUCKWILD" and his uncle.

But Humphreys wouldn't say whether 21-year-old Shain Gandee and his 48-year-old uncle David Gandee were in the vehicle. Relatives had been searching since early Sunday morning for both men. They were last seen around 3 a.m. Sunday at a bar in Sissonville.
