INDIAN TRAIL, NC — The case of a missing jogger’s death in Union County remains a mystery Tuesday night. The Union County Sheriff’s Office confirms Mark Hudspeth’s body was found Monday night behind Faith United Methodist Church in Indian Trail. Hudspeth’s family reported him missing Monday form his home just down the street. The church’s pastor says neighbors remain on edge.
“I do think that the anxiety level is a little high,” said Pastor Lonnie Pittman, “because they don’t know what happened. And I can’t imagine what the family’s going through, not knowing as well. And so our thoughts and prayers definitely go out to them first and foremost.”
The sheriff’s office continues to classify the case as a death investigation until autopsy results are complete.
