Remains police say might belong to missing University of Virginia student Hannah Graham have been found in a dried-up creek at an abandoned property.
A skull and bones were discovered in a heavily wooded area five weeks after the 18-year-old was last seen in the university town of Charlottesville.
The Albemarle County area, which is home to horse farms, is about 12 miles (20km) from the campus.
Residents said they noticed a foul smell days ago.
Chesterfield Sheriff's Department Sergeant Dale Terry, who led the search, said he believes God wanted his team to find what they found.

Jesse Leroy Matthew Jr, 32, has been charged with abduction
"I don't know how else to explain it," he told local station WTVR.
"Something inside me just told me to continue to look."
The last person seen with Graham, 32-year-old Jesse Leroy Matthew Jr, has been charged with abduction with intent to defile Graham.
He is being held in the Albemarle-Charlottesville Regional Jail.
The remains were discovered roughly six miles (10km) from where the body of 20-year-old Virginia Tech student Morgan Harrington was found after she vanished in 2009.
Police have said forensic evidence connects Matthew to Ms Harrington's killing, which in turn is linked by DNA to a 2005 sexual assault in northern Virginia.
Matthew has not been charged in those cases.
Ms Graham, who is British-born, was last seen on 13 September after a night out with friends.
In surveillance footage, she can be seen walking unsteadily and even running at times, past a pub and a service station and then on to a seven-block strip of bars, restaurants and shops.
It is not clear how long it will take authorities to identify the remains.
Police have blocked off roads, sifted through leaves and scoured the area for evidence.
