Georgia investigators have released a forensic sketch of a woman whose bones were found in a suitcase along an interstate highway.

It's the second suitcase containing a woman's bones found along Georgia interstates within the past two years. Authorities have not said whether there's any indication the cases are connected.

The Georgia Bureau of Investigation on Thursday released the sketch of a woman found on December 28 along Interstate 75 in Jackson, Georgia, southeast of Atlanta.

In July 2016, a construction worker found a suitcase containing the bones of another woman along Interstate 985 northeast of Atlanta. Her identity also remains a mystery.

Thirteen years earlier, skeletal remains of a man were discovered in Twiggs County along Interstate 16 after a military convoy crashed in 2003. The bones were discovered by a firefighter investigating a gas spill from the wreck - the man was determined to have died in 2001.
