SAN ANTONIO — Authorities in Medina County, with help from state investigators, are trying to find out what happened to an older man found dead Sunday night in Devine, a small community of about 4,400 residents.
The Devine Police Department identified the 78-year-old man in a Facebook post as Lloyd Fowler, saying officers found the body when they responded to the 1300 block of North Windy Knoll Drive for a welfare check shortly after 11 p.m. It’s a largely residential area.
Devine PD said a search warrant was executed at the property and the investigation ongoing, with help from Texas Rangers and the Department of Public Safety.
“There is no known threat to public safety regarding this case,” police assured the public.
The city is located about 34 miles southwest of downtown San Antonio.
