Sheriff Ed Gonzalez shared limited information due to how preliminary the investigation was. However, he said on X that homicide detectives were called to Colony Creek Dr. on Louetta.
That’s where an unidentified man in his 30s was found dead “with possible trauma.” It’s unclear how he died or if he was killed there or left behind, but an investigation continues.
