Missing man found

Volunteer firefighter dead

July 18, 2010 11:42 AM

The search for a missing man has come to an end.

Investigators with the Hardin County Sheriff's Office found 21 year old Nathan Strother dead. Deputies started a search for Strother this morning and it ended at about 11:30 am. Deputies found Strother's body off Highway 92 at Biscamp in Hardin County.

It is early in the investigation, but deputies say it looks like it was a self inflicted gunshot wound that killed Strother.

Strother had been last seen Thursday at his cousin's house in Silsbee.

He was a Silsbee volunteer fireman and always took his gear with him whenever he went out but left his gear at his cousin's house.

He was not reachable by his cell phone or fireman's pager. Relatives and co-workers say that was highly unusual for him.

exactly what I was thinking jadabear..... so obvious ...they even named this poor man by name and state it was apparent suicide....they wouldn't even name the Brent Coon's wife by name or mention it was his ex wife, only that the woman was found in a driveway of his home...... I guess that is what money buys you these days.
