A second man’s body was pulled from Lady Bird Lake in Austin, Texas, in two months, fueling fears a serial killer is hunting the city’s downtown social hub.
But Austin Police say the recent drownings are coincidental, and there’s no evidence of foul play.
The community’s speculation was discussed openly during Thursday’s city council meeting. Several men have gone missing in recent years after a night out on Rainey Street, the heart of Austin’s nightlife that’s lined with bars, high-end hotels and live music venues. They were later found in the lake about a mile away.
“There are too many people that have gone missing,” resident Christopher Pugh said during Thursday’s meeting. “There are too many people that have been injured. There are too many people that can walk off, and we still have absolutely no answers as to what has happened to any of those folks.”
Pugh’s 21-year-old son mysteriously went missing in November 2019 after a night out on Rainey Street and was found days later with “serious” injuries by the lake.
“Two more people have died since the last time I came down here and talked to you, and I’m going to bet we have no video camera on anything that happened with those incidents,” Pugh told city council.
Other speakers shared similar stories about their family members and friends who went missing after a night out on Rainey Street and died by drowning.
Funny how CNN and MSNBC and Big 3 Networks didn't cover THIS mass shooting (of 24 people!) … hmm … wonder why … doesn't fit their narrative?t.co/Y80QqiopIq
