Dare County Sheriff's Office in North Carolina releases 911 call of body found in trash bag

CLEVELAND - The Dare County Sheriff's Office has released the 911 call of a construction worker reporting a "bad" smell and body found in a trash bag in North Carolina.

On July 14, a construction worker was in Frisco filling out paperwork on Frisco Road and Gun on Highway 12 when he noticed an overbearing foul smell. What he saw when he got out of his truck that afternoon prompted him to contact police.

"I think I may have found possibly a body in a trash bag," the worker told a 911 dispatcher. "Maybe that girl who's been missing from Ohio."

Lynn Jackenheimer disappeared on July 3, after vacationing with her estranged boyfriend, Nate Summerfield, 27, to the Outer Banks of North Carolina with their 3-year-old son and her 13-year-old daughter.

DISPATCHER: "What makes you think it's possibly her?"

CALLER: "Well...I could smell something bad. You could tell there were marks, that there was a path. And I know that girl's been missing. I got out and looked and saw a trash bag. I couldn't tell what it was at first. But it's definitely a Hooters shirt. I could read Hooters across the shirt."

DISPATCHER: "Ok. We'll send someone out to you."

A family friend told our news crews in North Carolina that Jackenheimer had a Hooters shirt and wore it on vacation this past spring.

The unidentified body was found about 30 minutes from where the 33-year-old mother was last seen. Deputies with the sheriff's office were planning on releasing more information around 3 p.m., but have postponed it to "an indefinite time and date."

"We will do everything within our power to continue to update you as information becomes available. Thank you for your understanding," said Dare County Captain W. Charles Nieman in a news release.
