SCOTTSVILLE, TX (KSLA) -

Harrison County Sheriff's officials say they have found the body of a 19-year-old man missing since Tuesday. 19-year-old Jeremy Grinnell was last seen at work, where he never clocked out.  Family members grew concerned when they found a letter from him, prompting a search overnight that resumed Wednesday morning.

The K9 team was requested Wednesday morning by the Harrison County Sheriff's Office.  Three K-9 Live Search Dogs and five K-9 handlers from SFD arrived on scene in an area northwest of Scottsville, TX shortly after 11:00 a.m.  

Grinnell's body was found at approximately 11:30 a.m. in a heavily wooded area south of Marshall-Leigh Road and Long John Road in the Scottsville area of Harrison County. Crime scene investigators are on the scene and an autopsy has been ordered.
