The body of a missing Baton Rouge man has been identified after it was found under a bridge in Florida.
The Santa Rosa County Sheriff’s Office responded to a call on March 30 about the discovery of a body under the Garcon Point Bridge north of U.S. 98, near Gulf Breeze. The person was identified as Grant Brignac.
Brignac was last seen on March 25 leaving the scene of an accident on Interstate 10 at mile marker 18, north of where his body was found.
Brignac suffered from schizophrenia and bipolar disorder and was considered a missing and endangered person, according to the police.
The Santa Rosa County Sheriff’s Office released a statement on Friday that asked the community to keep Brignac’s family in their thoughts and prayers.
The investigation into Brignac’s death is ongoing.
