HOUSTON — The Coast Guard is searching for a man who went missing near the San Luis Pass Bridge Friday morning.
Missing is 19-year-old Jacob Sedowski. He was last seen wearing a black shirt and tan shorts on the Galveston side of San Luis Pass.
At 8:12 a.m., a wade fisherman contacted Coast Guard Sector Houston-Galveston watchstanders to report that he and Sedowski had been pulled under by strong currents while wade fishing and he did not see Sedowski resurface.
