In a recent development within the Edgebrook area of Houston, authorities discovered a decomposing body in a home during a search for a man reported missing for several months. KPRC 2 reported that the man, in his 30s, had evaded the attention of those who might have noticed sooner.

The search warrant, which brought Houston Police Department to the scene Tuesday afternoon, was part of an ongoing missing persons investigation. Investigators found two people inside the home when they discovered the body. According to KHOU 11, these individuals have been detained and are being questioned in connection with the investigation. The nature of their relationship to the deceased man, however, remains unconfirmed.

The community is in shock as the investigation continues, with more details expected after the medical examiner's report. The house, now surrounded by crime scene tape, stands as a reminder of the tragedy, and it's still unclear if foul play was involved. Both KPRC 2 and KHOU 11 are following the story as police investigate further.
