A South Texas sheriff's department is investigating the apparent disappearance of an oilfield worker with Marble Falls and Spicewood ties who was first reported missing late last year.
The La Salle County Sheriff's Office, located in Cotulla, said John Michael Johnson Jr., 37, has not contacted loved ones in more than a year, according to La Salle County Sheriff's Public Information Officer Marc Robertson.
Johnson was employed in the past by Diamond X Contracting and had an address in Spicewood and he has family members who live in Marble Falls.
In 2015, he was living and working in Cotulla. Johnson was reported missing by his father in a call to the La Salle County Sheriff’s Office on Nov. 5, 2015.
“Mr. Johnson’s father does not know of any address where his son could be in Cotulla,” Sheriff's Capt. Joey Garcia said this week. “We have him in the system as a missing person.”
