Not a Piper, but this is just nuts. I'm wondering if someone drilled out a bunch of rivets or removed bolts/nuts from his experimental plane?

Removed the fluff, posted the crazy stuff below:
Officials found the plane has lost parts early Tuesday.
The area where parts are being recovered is over a mile long, Exum said.
Most everything in the recovery area, Exum pointed out, is full of water up to 20 feet deep.
Another wreckage area was found Wednesday morning, Exum said.
According to Public Information Officer Capt. Brent Exum with the Cook County Sheriff’s Office, Emergency 911 received a call from a resident on Arthur Tillman Road who said he found items on his property that appeared to be from a plane.
The Cook County Sheriff's Office says around 3:30 p.m. Tuesday, they received a call from a homeowner reporting that they'd found a piece of debris that appeared to be from a plane. During the call, the homeowner located another piece of the aircraft with a tail number on it, which was then matched to a missing persons report out of Berlin, Georgia.
The missing persons report was for the owner of the plane, 56-year-old Larry D. Bothos, of Colquitt County. Bothos was reported missing on Tuesday after he didn’t show up for an afternoon appointment.
Authorities responded to the scene and confirmed that the wreckage was indeed that of Bothos' plane. The debris field spanned approximately 2 miles in a wooded area west of Adel.
This is a bizarre report & accident.
