Investigators in northeast Texas are convinced that a vehicle recovered from Lake Tawakoni last week belonged to Carey Mae Parker, who went missing in 1991.
A private search and recovery group discovered the 1980 Buick Skylark on Feb. 4 near a causeway about five miles from Parker’s family home. There were no signs of human remains in or around the vehicle, members of the dive team said.
Searchers used a crane and briefly shut down the causeway during the process. The operation was first reported by the Hunt County Theft Reports news website.
Ericka Miller, a press secretary for the Texas Department of Public Safety, declined to say this week if DPS officers were following up in the area.
