Missing 8-Year-Old Nigerian Dead Body Found In Texas LakeTexas Lake
Authorities reported that Ryan was last seen leaving his bedroom in Richmond community at approximately 4:56 a.m., with surveillance footage showing him walking down a nearby street around 30 minutes later.
Despite an extensive search effort involving K9 units, helicopters, and drones, Ryan’s body was recovered from a lake near his last known location on August 25, 2024.
The Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Office confirmed the recovery of Ryan’s body via their official Facebook page, bringing a tragic end to the search. The page quickly became a forum for residents to express their condolences and share their shock and sorrow.
A resident known as Tacoma Burden wrote, “I’m praying hard for this family. It’s my worst nightmare as a parent with a child on the spectrum.
“Checking multiple times is always key, too, not just once. We just had another child found in a retention pond not too long ago, that the police said they had searched before, and she was recovered from the same place.”
Another concerned resident, Chris Miller, said, ”The importance of checking repeatedly is so crucial! This poor baby was found in a lake they had already searched, so heartbreaking.”
One follower, Adriana Castorena, called for schools to incorporate swimming lessons into their curriculum to help prevent similar tragedies in the future. She expressed her concern, stating, “We are failing them. Life skills programs in schools should include swimming classes. Praying for the family.”
A resident, Rita Hedt, urged community authorities to implement stricter safety measures, suggesting that “all retention ponds should follow swimming pool regulations —fenced off with locked gates!” to ensure the safety of children, adults, and others.
A Texas resident, Christina Kohl, shared her sorrow, noting that “the same thing happened to a little girl in the Cross Creek neighbourhood this past June. She was around the same age and also non-verbal autistic.”
A similar tragedy befell another Nigerian autistic 12-year-old girl, Aisha Adebayo, who reportedly drowned accidentally in late June in a lake near her home in Fulshear, a city in northwestern Fort Bend County.
