LAFAYETTE – Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDWF) Enforcement Division agents found the body of a missing Rayne man in the Vermilion River on Thursday morning.

Senior Agent Nick Guillory, Agent Jake Darden and Agent Justin Lowry were on patrol when they located the body of Mitch Jackson, 39, in the Vermilion River behind 200 Farmington Road in Lafayette.

Jackson had been missing since Friday, March 4 after he was involved in a five-car accident on Ambassador Caffery Parkway in Lafayette and left the scene.

He then drove his vehicle to the local Home Depot and locked the vehicle with his cell phone and medications for high blood pressure inside.

He was last seen on March 4 on surveillance video entering and leaving a few stores on Ambassador Caffery Parkway before disappearing.
