A commercial truck driver, who had gone missing during a suspected hijacking while transporting vehicles, has been discovered deceased in a coastal region of Georgia, according to an announcement by the FBI on Wednesday.

Alejandro Jacomino Gonzalez, aged 41, was last seen alive in the early hours of April 17 at a rest stop on Interstate 95 south located in Brevard County, Florida.

The investigation took a concerning turn later that same day when authorities found his truck nearly 300 miles away in Port Wentworth, Georgia.

Officials have reported that since the truck’s discovery, three of the vehicles have been recovered in Florida, while several others are still missing.

According to the FBI, Gonzalez was in the process of transporting a number of vehicles from Georgia to Florida when he went missing on April 16. He had collected these vehicles from the Port of Brunswick and was en route to Miami for their delivery.

Federal investigators said Gonzalez had picked up multiple vehicles from the Port of Brunswick and was headed toward Miami for delivery.

GPS data showed the truck leaving the rest area, continuing south briefly, then reversing course and heading north.

Authorities said Gonzalez became unreachable soon afterward.

In the days that followed, the FBI asked the public for surveillance video, photos and witness accounts from anyone who may have been at or near the Grant-Valkaria rest area between 1 a.m. and 8 a.m. on April 17.

The bureau described Gonzalez, who was originally from Cuba, as having “a full sleeve tattoo on his left arm, a tattoo on his lower right arm and a tattoo of the word ‘Elisia’ on his right forearm.”

Gonzalez’s cousin, Juan Carlos Forcade, told NBC6 the FBI called Gonzalez’s wife on Tuesday and told her her husband’s body was found in Georgia.

The FBI later confirmed that a body found in a coastal area of the state was confirmed to be Gonzalez. More details about how he died were not immediately known.

Both the FBI Field Offices in Atlanta and Tampa are investigating Gonzalez’s death. Anyone with information is asked to contact the FBI’s tip line at 1-800-225-5324 (1-800-CALL-FBI). Tips can also be submitted online.
