After pulling the car from the water, officers found a deceased victim inside.

WMAR reached out to the owner of the Waldorf Silver Taxi Cab service who owns the car and said that he got a call from police saying that the van had been found.

According to police, the van went missing in December 2014 in Waldorf, Maryland and it could have been submerged for several years.

We've reached out to the Charles County Sheriff's Office and are waiting for further information.

The victim has not yet been identified.
