Body found in Hog Bayou in Calhoun County

Parks and Wildlife Department met deputies with the Calhoun County Sheriff’s Office at the site and confirmed that it was a deceased body in the water.

Due to the body being in the water, Chief Deputy Krause said that with the state of decomposition, it was challenging to identify the individual that was found. At this time all they know about the body is that it is an adult male.

The body was sent to a Victoria mortuary and then will be sent to Austin for a Travis County Medical Examiner to conduct an autopsy.

The autopsy is tentatively scheduled for Monday, January 23.

An investigation is ongoing by the Calhoun County Sheriff’s Office with the help of the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department.
