Body of missing security guard found inside vehicle submerged in a lake
Rosharon Texas August 26, 2022
A security officer that went missing from his job in Texas almost two weeks ago has been found, tragically, dead, in a submerged vehicle in a lake.
The search for Robert Wayne White, had been conducted by law enforcement and by a private search and rescue group from Texas.
There had been several reported sightings of White in various areas of Texas but none of those proved to be accurate.
White was on duty on a property doing patrols when he went missing. The original news story stated that he was on duty at a store but that was where his phone had pinged at one time.
Family members now have stated that his body was found inside a vehicle submerged in a lake just off County Road 59 in Rosharon.
The family elaborated that law enforcement officials reached out Thursday to inform them that the body was found on the same property they have been searching in the last week.
The development comes 12 days after he was last seen on August 13th.
The 59-year-old went to work in Rosharon and clocked in but never clocked out, family said.
Texas EquuSearch crews were working with White’s family to help find him.
Law enforcement stated that an autopsy will be performed to determine the exact cause of death
and that they are not going to speculate if foul play was involved.
