CCTV footage, believed to be of Leila and Ethan's crash, is circulating. The tape is dated Friday 21 October 2022, at 11.49pm. This is the same date the couple was last seen before being reported as missing.
Footage of the vehicle that Leila Lees and Ethan Kirkland were found in is circulating on WhatsApp. Police have recovered both bodies.
The SAPS said: “The bodies of a male and a female have been recovered from a motor vehicle today, Monday 24 October 2022, which landed in a dam in Paul Kruger Street in Stellenbosch. “Earlier this morning at around 10.10am, a community member spotted an object in a dam in the city centre and alerted the authorities. The local police members responded and secured the scene, when they noticed the wheels of a motor vehicle, which was the only part of the vehicle that was visible.
“The police requested the assistance of the SAPS Provincial Diving unit and upon arrival at the scene, after assessing the circumstances, they retrieved the bodies of the two victims from the motor vehicle. Both victims were declared deceased on the scene by the medical personnel. Stellenbosch police registered an inquest for further investigation.”
