Where are they? Several missing on South Plains as officials wait to ID body - LubbockOnline.com
As Lubbock officials continue working to uncover and identify human remains found Saturday in South Lubbock County, there are a handful of South Plains families with missing loved ones. Though Saturday’s discovery by Lubbock police came after a surge in activity regarding missing Lubbock teen Mark Ysasaga, police and the Lubbock County Medical Examiner’s Office have yet to identify the human remains. Soon after the police announcement, the family of Mark Ysasaga announced they are organizing a car wash fundraiser for June 20 at O’Reilly Auto Parts at 50th Street and Avenue Q to help pay for his funeral expenses. Ysasaga and Maegan Hembree are among several people missing from the South Plains and law enforcement officials believe each mystery can be solved with information from the public. He was 15 years old when he went missing June 14, 2012. The Lubbock Police Department announced May 14 that an arrest warrant had been issued for 20-year-old Jose Angel Simental. Enoe Garcia Jr. DPS investigators believe foul play may be possible in the July, 1, 2000, disappearance of then-36-year-old Enoe Garcia Jr. Garcia — who is listed as endangered — was last known to be driving.
