“Deputies observed the body of a lifeless male on the ground with apparent injuries,” the sheriff’s office said on Facebook. “A female has been detained for investigation, a black Camaro with heavy front end damage was also recovered at location.”
The sheriff’s office said the investigation is ongoing and asks anyone with information to contact the agency at (956) 383-8114.
