However Gwinnett County police spokeswoman Cpl Michele Pihera tells Channel 2's Tony Thomas they don't want to discredit or send away tips about someone out side that range.
"If a family out there is a missing a 16 or 17 or 18-year-old, we still want those tips to come in and we will investigate them," Pihera said.
A Georgia Department of Transportation worker was about 80 yards into the woods when he spotted something unusual.

“He noticed a suitcase and because this was a heavily wooded area, he knew that the suitcase didn’t seem to belong, so he came back and told his supervisor, and that’s when the supervisor called 911,” Pihera said.
