According to Madeline Commons with the Corpus Christi Police Department's Public Information Office, on Thursday morning, detectives were able to ping the victim's phone to find his last known location was in the area of Sun Valley Drive and Yorktown Boulevard, near The Lakes subdivision.
Officers brought in drones and canines to help in the search. Then, they later requested the dive team and extra officers because the area was so vast.
