David Alfonzo Young, 71, who was reported missing back in May, was found submerged inside his 1990 Dodge Dakota at the Satterwhite Point Marina boat ramp over the weekend. Sheriff Peter White told WIZS News, “It looked as though he drove straight down the boat ramp.”
No foul play is suspected in this case as the truck was in drive when it entered the water. “Why he drove into the water we don’t know,” stated White.
Several boats have launched from the ramp since May, but one boater thought he hit something with his propeller and called local authorities.
An autopsy is being conducted in this case.
