Autopsy results have confirmed that the remains found Sunday in the Bridger-Teton National Forest are those of Gabby Petito, a 22-year-old woman who disappeared while on a trip exploring national parks with her fiancé, Brian Laundrie, according to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in Denver.

The FBI tweeted that Teton County Coroner Dr. Brent Blue ruled the manner of death a homicide in his preliminary findings. “The cause of death remains pending final autopsy results," the FBI said.


"Anyone with information concerning Mr. Laundrie's role in this matter or his current whereabouts should contact the FBI," Special Agent in Charge Michael Schneider said, Jason Hanna, Madeline Holcombe, and Steve Almasy reported for CNN.


The FBI in Denver said the agency would like information from anyone who may have had contact with Petito or Laundrie or who visited the Spread Creek Dispersed Camping Area between August 27 and 30 or may have seen their vehicle.


Petito’s remains were found Sunday in an undeveloped camping area in Bridger-Teton National Forest on the eastern edge of Grand Teton National Park, officials have said.

Authorities in Florida are searching for Laundrie, who has not been seen in a week. Petito's family said through an attorney earlier Tuesday that they need time to grieve.

"We will be making a statement when Gabby is home," attorney Richard Benson Stafford said in a statement obtained by CNN affiliate KSL. The police search for Laundrie resumed Tuesday at a Florida nature reserve where his parents reportedly said he indicated he was going last week.


Laundrie's parents told investigators he left their home in North Port with a backpack September 14 to go to the T. Mabry Carlton Jr. Memorial Reserve near Venice.
