Jacob Mccarty Wiki – Jacob Mccarty Biography

Jacob McCarty disappeared from his home in Corydon, Indiana, on September 21. His remains, along with those of his dog, were recovered in a wooded area off Interstate 64 near Harrison County Hospital, Smith said. Police searched the area, according to Smith, after receiving a tip from a person who said he may have seen McCarty walking his dog in the area the day he disappeared.

The body of a 14-year-old southern Indiana boy who was reported missing last week was found in a wooded area near Interstate 64. Harrison County Sheriff’s Department officials confirmed to WLKY that they located the body of Jacob McCarty during a search Tuesday.

Missing – Found dead

McCarty was last seen a week ago when he left his home in Corydon. His father said McCarty took his dog for a walk in the woods in Corydon near Pacer Court, along Federal Drive Northwest, according to authorities last week.

In a video posted on Facebook, Harrison County Sheriff Nick Smith and his father, Jeremiah McCarty, plead that anyone within a 200 mile radius of Corydon review their camera footage to help with efforts to search.

In an update Tuesday night, officials said a business owner reported seeing someone walking through the area where McCarty disappeared. Officials returned to the scene, where they found the bodies of the 14-year-old boy and his dog.

Authorities said investigators from the Sheriff’s Department, Indiana State Police and the coroner’s office remain at the scene. Investigators have not determined the cause of death, but they do not suspect a crime. McCarty and his dog were found around noon Tuesday in the wooded area near the I-64 exit about a mile past the Corydon Ramsey Road overpass. No further details have been released.

In a report last week, officials believed McCarty had left home to meet someone he met online, but the sheriff’s department did not release any news that Tuesday. Officials thank the community and business owners for spreading the word about the search and bringing closure to the family.

McCarty’s family has been notified, Smith added, and an autopsy and necropsy of the dog will be performed. “This is a devastating time and a difficult road for Jacob’s loved ones,” he said.

McCarty’s father, Jeremiah McCarty, previously told The Courier-Journal that he initially thought his son had taken his dog for a walk when he returned home and did not find them there. He became concerned when the couple did not return and Jacob did not answer the phone, he said, and decided to call the police.

The Harrison County Sheriff’s Office worked with many other law enforcement agencies, including the FBI, during the seven-day search for McCarty.

“We all believe that he met someone that he had met online and it was a voluntary meeting. The question is why he has not returned from that meeting,” Smith previously told The Courier-Journal. “Who did he go with, where did they go and why hasn’t he returned?”
