KEMAH, Texas — The Coast Guard and a team of volunteers continue to comb the Galveston Bay for the Kemah Police chief after a wave from a large vessel threw him overboard Friday.
Chris Reed, 50, has been missing since 4 p.m. Friday, when he fell out of his boat without a life jacket, Coast Guard Lt. Cmdr. Caren Damon said at a news conference late Friday.
About 15 agency vessels and 25 volunteer vessels were searching the water Saturday, as numerous volunteers walk the shoreline. Texas City officials have a waiting list for additional volunteers.
