However, the family began searching for him after no word was heard from Walters. Vines was on his way to the Walters home when he received the call the man's body had been found by a grandson. The body was about 100 yards away from his house in a thicket across Highway 24. Vines said there is no evidence of foul play, however, the case is being treated as a homicide until the results of the crime lab are returned to the NCSO.
