SAN ANTONIO — A Pleasanton family is desperate for answers.
Jesse Albert Garcia Jr. left for a fishing trip with his buddies June 26 and never came back.
Family members say Garcia, 38, was headed to the Corpus Christi/Robstown area to fish.
"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.
