Burke County Sheriff’s office says Styburski’s truck was found after a train hit it early in the morning on July 27th.

Styburski was not in the truck at the time of the collision.

“He would go missing for like 2 or 3 days but that’s like when he would go to the beach or somewhere and he would always contact his mama if he was going somewhere,” said Fairlcloth.

"The 37-year-old Richmond County man still has not showed up home. Williams told NewsChannel 6 he was seen by his ex-wife on Tuesday, July 26. Then the next day, a strange turn of events. His vehicle was hit by a train on Watkins Pond Road near Mike Padgett Highway. His mother said the train conductor saw him walking in the area wearing just a pair of shorts and one shoe, claiming he’d just gone swimming. Williams said, she suspects foul play.

“I can’t picture him going in those lakes with the alligators in there and snakes and all kinds of stuff. It just wouldn’t be like him to do that,” she noted".
