Car linked to man reported missing found in Carolina Forest pond. Do you know where he is?
The vehicle of a man reported missing earlier this month was found in a Carolina Forest, but investigators remain stumped on the victim’s location.
Earlier this month, Horry County police asked for the public’s help finding Rodriquez Gibbs. He was last seen on Jan. 6 around 11 p.m. at Handley’s Pub and Grub on Renee Drive. At that time, police say he may have been driving a tan Ford Taurus.
On Thursday, Horry County police say they found that vehicle in a pond on Renee Drive. The pond is near the Kroger in Carolina Forest.
Police say Gibbs remains missing and anyone with information is asked to contact police at 843-915-8477.
Dozens of people gathered at the pond on Thursday afternoon as dive crews searched the pond to try and find Gibbs. Police also put up yellow tape to keep people back from the scene.
Correction: This story has been corrected to show the vehicle was found Thursday, not Tuesday.
