Missing Texas Couple News

Missing Couple Moab

Search teams looking for a Texas couple that’s been missing for six days following an intense storm and widespread flooding June 21 have recovered a pair of men’s pants, with keys and wallet inside them, and a woman’s rain jacket, downstream from where their off-highway vehicle was found on the rugged Steel Bender Trail.

Searchers find men’s pants, ladies jacket downstream; search will end at noon due to flood warning

“We have four dog teams currently with Search and Rescue,” said Sheriff Jamison Wiggins. “We’ve covered ground from where we found their UTV to the Colorado River, through town, and up to Mill Creek.” Wiggins said there are indications the couple crossed Mill Creek before the flash flood hit. They saw signs the Ankofskis had to turn around at one point and they followed the tracks back to the creek. “We lost their tracks at the creek crossing,” said Wiggins, which led searchers to believe they were swept downstream, where the items belonging to the couple were found.
