The elderly man reported missing by the Anniston Police Department Tuesday was found dead in McClellan after a search effort in the woods near his home.
The Anniston Police Department released information saying 77-year old Bobby Jack Travis was reported missing on Monday and search teams combed the area until nightfall. The Anniston Police Department’s Special Response Team and Calhoun County Civil Defense searched thick woods near his apartment in McClellan the following day and used a helicopter from the Etowah County Sheriff’s Department.
The Anniston Star reports that the body of Travis was found around 2 p.m. Tuesday and he apparently died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound last Thursday. Travis’s family reported him missing after phone communications became “irregular.”
