Two days after the bodies of a woman and her daughter were found floating in waters near Prince George Wharf, officials discovered her abandoned car, which according to an eyewitness was parked near Fort Charlotte on Wednesday.
The Nassau Guardian meanwhile confirmed that police were yesterday questioning a man in connection with the deaths, which were still classified as sudden deaths.

The bodies of Amanda Seymour-Burrows, 32, and her five-year-old daughter, Taja Burrows of Stapledon Gardens, were found on Tuesday morning by defence force marines.
Seymour-Burrows' car, a blue Nissan Sentra, was discovered by police around 7:30 a.m. yesterday,  west of the Cricket Club on West Bay Street, Assistant Superintendent Ken Strachan told reporters on the scene.
The eyewitness, who works in the vicinity where the car was parked, said she watched as a man parked it under a tree just behind the Cricket Club.
"At 6:45 [Wednesday] morning while waiting on my boss to open up I saw a blue Sentra with a white sticker pass me with a male gentleman with Rasta like locks," said the eyewitness, who spoke on condition on anonymity.
"Less than five minutes [later] the same person came from the back of [the Cricket Club] with some clothes in his hand. He walked past my vehicle and went out the main entrance [at Haynes Oval]. I didn't know the cause of it but he kept looking back."
The eyewitness said when the man emerged from the back of the Cricket Club he had taken off the gray tam he was wearing while driving the car and had a peach and white towel in his hand.
Strachan said police hope the discovery of the car will boost their investigation as it is one of the first clues that police have uncovered in the case.
"We are concerned about the circumstances surrounding this situation.  At this time our investigators are checking to see if there is anything untoward with the car," Strachan said.
When defence force marines pulled the bodies from the waters, the girl was wearing pajamas, police said.
