The bodies of two men who were reported missing from Athens several months ago were found over the weekend inside a storage facility in Gwinnett County.
According to police, Joshua Jackson and Derrick Devion Ruff were found dead Sunday inside a storage unit at the Extra Space Storage on Lawrenceville Highway.
The Gwinnett County Police Department, along with the FBI and the Athens-Clarke County Police Department, is working the case as a homicide.
Jackson and Ruff were last seen Dec. 18 driving a Ford Expedition. The Expedition was later found abandoned Dec. 21 in a neighborhood off Monfort Road.

Investigators say it appears the men died of gunshot wounds.
