Gabby Petito: FBI visits Brian Laundrie home to investigate DNA match

Two FBI agents visited the home of Brian Laundrie on Sunday to collect some of his personal belongings for “DNA matching,” amid a scaled up search for the missing 23-year-old.

Mr Laundrie has been declared a “person of interest” in the homicide of his girlfriend Gabby Petito, but disappeared on 14 September.

Last Thursday, the FBI issued a federal arrest warrant against him in relation to the death and law enforcement are now combing through the 24,565-acre Carlton Reserve in Sarasota County located near his Florida home.

It is believed Mr Laundrie entered the area but hasn’t been seen since.
