PAULDING COUNTY, Ga. - The body of a missing Paulding County woman has been found in a car discovered underwater in Sweetwater Creek.
Officials say 36-year-old Amanda Lindley had not been seen since leaving her home on Cohran Store Road to go to work around 3:30 a.m. Wednesday. On Thursday, the Paulding County Sheriff's Office sent out Lindley's photo on Facebook, asking residents to be on the lookout for her.
Around 4:20 p.m. Thursday, one of Lindley's family members called 911 to report a possible motor accident on a bridge on the 1800 block of Friendship Church Road. The caller told police that they found debris from a vehicle in the water that appeared to be similar to Lindley's 2004 Mercedes E320.
