In a developing story out of Westmoreland County, police have announced the discovery of a missing man's car, which appears to have been intentionally concealed. Ruben Carranza, missing since July 29, was last seen in a white 2002 Toyota Avalon, with Pennsylvania plates HSG-7080.
The car was found off Ridge Road in Acme, as reported by a concerned local and confirmed by the City of Greensburg Police Department. "We believe this timing is NO COINCIDENCE," authorities stated in WPXI's coverage of the event.
