FREEPORT — Beach-goers looking to enjoy Good Friday on Bryan Beach instead spent the afternoon calling 911 and watching the body of a 24-year-old Alvin woman being pulled from a pool of water.
Workers recovered the body of Krystle Renee Bezner from a large washout behind Bryan Beach about 3:30 p.m. Friday, Freeport Police Capt. Gus Flores said.
A spokesman from the Alvin Police Department said Bezner was reported missing about 9:30 p.m. Friday.
A cause of death had not been determined Saturday, but officers are investigating the woman’s death as a homicide, Flores said.
Freeport officers waded into the washout to bring out the woman’s body, he said.
Pct. 1, Place 2 Justice of the Peace Milan Miller pronounced Bezner dead at the scene, Flores said.
“It appears that it is a possible homicide,” Miller said.
Flores would not comment about the woman’s injuries or about how long she might have been dead before her body was found.
The Facts could not locate Bezner’s family Saturday afternoon.
The body has been sent to the Galveston County Medical Examiner’s Office to determine the cause of death, he said.
An examiner’s office spokesman said the cause of death is likely to be determined within the next few weeks.
District Attorney Jeri Yenne has been notified of the case, Flores said.
Friends and acquaintances who saw Bezner in the days before her death should contact the Freeport Police Department at 979-239-1211, Police Chief Tyrone Morrow said.
