METTER, Ga, - The Georgia Bureau of Investigation is looking into the death of a child in southeast Georgia.

What we know:

The GBI said 4-year-old Kameron Jamel Williams was found dead on Sunday, June 22, in Metter, a town located between Savannah and Macon on Interstate 16.

Police and fire crews originally went to the child's apartment complex after Williams' family reported him missing.

After searching, a family member found him dead in a car at the complex, according to the GBI.
