Pleasanton man goes missing during fishing trip

"He always has his phone. He's never not with his phone," Cuevas explained. "You text him, he texts you right back."

"I told my mom, 'Would you like to report him missing?' She said, 'I don't know. He's an adult. Maybe he's just out with his friends and he's ok.' She was just trying to be hopeful," said Cuevas, who filed a missing person's report in Atascosa County July 12.

Since the day he left Pleasanton, his number is no longer in service and his social media pages have disappeared.

The family believes a unique sticker on the back window of Jesse's truck will stand out.

Garcia drives a silver Nissan with Texas license plate JYL-9558.

"We believe if we find the truck it will lead us to him...He never would leave his truck behind. It was like his own little second house," said Cuevas, who also mentioned checking area impound lots and hospitals, but no sign of her brother.

"He would have helped somebody if he saw them on the side of the road...he was very trusting. Did he trust the wrong person?" said Terri Cuevas, Garcia's older sister.

The search spurred a social media post of others who have gone missing here in the Coastal Bend. The post highlighted five people who have gone missing in or near Corpus Christi the last 5 years.

3NEWS looked into the cases which date back to 2019's disappearance of 36 year old Bradley Brooks.

Ivie Joe Gutierrez who was reported missing at the age of 27.

Jesse Garcia from Pleasanton who was going on a fishing trip and was last seen in or near Robstown in June 2023.

Jerry Zamora has been missing for over a week. In a public social media post, Zamora's father said he has a medical condition that affects his memory and comprehension. He was last seen at The Oso Creek Trails off of Cimarron and Yorktown area

Details of Disappearance​

Garcia was last seen at a park on Haven Drive in Corpus Christi, Texas on June 26, 2023. He lived in Pleasanton, Texas and told his family he was going on a fishing trip with two friends; he fished regularly. Whenever he went out of town, Garcia would contact his loved ones every day, and would reply to every text he got from them. After he left home that day, though, no one heard from him. He was reported missing on July 12.

Garcia's family does not know exactly where Garcia was planning to fish, or who with. His truck, a silver 2006 Nissan Frontier with the Texas license plate number JYL-9558 and a sticker of a pig with wings and a red hat on the back window, is also missing. Photos of the truck and sticker are posted with this case summary. Garcia's case remains unsolved.

I would think an accident in the vehicle of some kind, but it’s weird his friends never came forward to identify themselves, assuming he was actually meeting people.
