On Thursday March 5, 2015 at approximately 3:45 pm after a two day thorough and methodical search, Chambers County Sheriff’s Office along with the Texas Rangers and Baytown Police Department discovered two bodies believed to be those of missing teenagers, (17) year old Jarvis Lamont Morgan Jr and (18) year old Alexjandro Castillo Chavez in a body of water near Anahuac, Texas. During the investigation, detectives followed several leads which lead law enforcement to an area in Oak Island, which is near Anahuac and discovered the two bodies. The identity of the two teens would have to be confirmed by the medical examiner’s office.

Detectives are asking for the assistance from the public in locating (17) year old Jose Juan Chavez known as “Chop” as a person of interest in the investigation and disappearance of the two teens.
