The couple helped Mr. Williams change a flat tire on the south side of the Mission bridge.  The male identified himself as "Josh" and the couple were driving a newer model silver Toyota Yaris.

I'm curious about the above statement that I have quoted. Wondering how they know that the male identified himself as "Josh". I could see someone having seen these people (and their car) with Mr. Williams as they were both parked at the side of the road, but how would anyone know what the male said his name was?

hmmm your right Debbie, wonder how they would know that.  Unless he had called home at that point I can't figure out how they would know that either?

Could it be that there was an outside witness who saw this young couple help Mr. Williams with his tire, and he overheard the name josh?
I mean, even the type of car was given out by someone.

Investigators determined that Williams' vehicle went off the road to the right and down a 10 foot embankment.

Thank you for posting the update solvy. Not a very positive outcome, but at least Cyril's family has him back.
