Corpus Christi police officials confirmed to 3NEWS that the human remains found at the wastewater station near Ennis Joslin Road in Corpus Christi “most likely” belong to Caleb Harris.
As CrimeOnline previously reported, Harris vanished on March 4 from his residence at The Cottages in Corpus Christi, in the 1900 block of Ennis Joslin. He sent a Snapchat message around 2:45 a.m. to his sister, his family said. Shortly after, he went outside to wait for an Uber food order.
His father, Randy Harris, told CrimeOnline that at around 3:03 a.m., Harris sent a Snapchat to his best friend at a bridge next to his apartment complex. His phone either died or was turned off shortly after.
On June 24, city workers performing maintenance at the Perry Place wastewater lift station found remains inside a wastewater collection well and promptly contacted the Police Department.
“We all have heavy hearts this evening as we learned of the positive identification of our sweet Caleb,” the Harris family said on social media.
“We will grieve our son, but we are at peace knowing he is with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Our only hope is in Jesus. If you don’t know our Savior please talk to me. I love talking about Jesus. Thank you for your prayers and support during this tragic time.”
