Missing since Wednesday, Oct. 6
Christopher Ramirez was last seen by a neighbor between 1:30 - 2 p.m. following his dog down the road near his home at the 10000 block of Deer Park Lane in Plantersville.

The home is part of the Foxfire subdivision between Plantersville and Todd Mission off of Farm-to-Market Road 1774.

The mother said she tried to find Christopher calling long out his name but couldn’t locate him so she called law enforcement.

The extensive search has been ongoing since with door-to-door searches of homes, vehicles and structures; the search area is approximately 1.5-square miles and is slowly being extended. Ground searches have included search dogs, horses, ATV’s and multiple skilled search organizations.

Air searches include helicopters and drones. Bodies of water have also been searched by sonar and dive crews. Two ponds had water completely pumped, thankfully with no sign of Christopher in them.

Many organizations have assisted Grimes County Sheriff’s Office including the FBI and Department of Homeland Security.

Christopher is a Hispanic male, approximately 3-foot tall weighing 40-45 pounds. He has brown hair and brown eyes. Christopher was last seen wearing a bright green shirt, shorts (unknown color) and red Mickey Mouse shoes.

Anyone with information of his whereabouts are urged to contact GCSO, 936-873-2151 or call 9-1-1.
