Authorities are still searching for Kala's missing boyfriend Charlie
A WOMAN who was reported missing along with her boyfriend two months ago has been found "chained up like a dog" inside a container.
Cops found Kala Brown, 30, banging on the walls of a padlocked metal box as they searched a sex offender's home in Spartanburg County, South Carolina.

Registered sex offender Todd Christopher Kohlhepp, owner of the property, has been arrested in connection with the incident.
Kala and her boyfriend Charlie Carver, 32, vanished without a trace on August 31.
The missing woman told detectives she had been held in the locked in a 30 feet long and 15 feet wide metal container against her will for two months but was fed regularly.
She alleges there might be four bodies on the property but cops have not verified this information.
Her boyfriend Charlie remains missing.
County Sheriff Chuck Wright said Kala was "chained inside the container like a dog" and that it was "the grace of God that she was found alive".

"It's very possible" that they are dealing with a serial killer, Wright said.
After the couple went missing, sinister messages were posted on their social media weeks after they failed to show up at a friend's house for dinner.
When someone went to check on them at their home, someone found their beloved dog had been left without food or water and the door was unlocked.
Their car was missing from the driveway and prescription medication was still there, as were their contact lenses and glasses.
The pair didn't make any contact with family, friends, or work colleagues.
A month after their disappearance Charlie’s Facebook suddenly became active.
It said the couple – who live in the United States – had got married and were expecting a baby.
It also said he and Kala were fine – but the post was then deleted.
