According to investigators, a family member who was out looking for David, spotted his Moped and his body was found nearby.

Clarendon County deputies say David’s family reported him missing after he was last seen on Sunday leaving from Manning Lane Apartments between 7 and 7:30 p.m.

Mock says an autopsy will be conducted on Saturday at the Medical University of South Carolina.

This case remains under investigation.
