Report: Third Suspect Arrested In Connection With Aniah Blanchard Disappearance

It was reported yesterday that remains have been found in Macon County (Alabama) that are believed to be those of Aniah Blanchard, who is the stepdaughter of UFC fighter Walt Harris. 

Another event in connection to the case took place yesterday as well because a third arrested has been made by authorities in relation to the disappearance of Blanchard. A report from the Montgomery Advertiser states that David Lee Johnson Jr. was arrested yesterday, being charged with hindering prosecution for his alleged role in the disappearance of Blanchard. 

Lee County District Attorney Brandon Hughes confirmed the arrest and declined to say exactly what Johnson Jr. did to hinder the case, as a gag order has been enacted to prevent certain information from leaking to the media. Johnson Jr. is being held on $7,500 bond and is still being held in jail as of this writing, a warrant for Johnson Jr.’s arrest came through Montgomery County. 

Johnson Jr. joins Ibraheem Yazeed and Antwain Fisher as suspects who have been arrested in the last few weeks in connection with the disappearance of Blanchard, but Yazeed and Fisher are being held without bond.
