Man dies after car falls into Hood County creek

GRANBURY, Texas -  A Granbury man was killed early Tuesday morning in a crash that was likely weather-related.

The Hood County Sheriff’s Office said first responders pulled 26-year-old Cody James Sayer’s body from the Contrary Creek near his home in the Indian Harbor neighborhood.

His car went off the road at Chisholm Trail and Osage Court around 4:20 a.m. He wasn’t able to escape before it went under water.

Sayer’s vehicle was the only one involved in the accident.  The sheriff’s office suspects the overnight rain was a factor in the crash, but it is still investigating.

Sayer’s body was sent to the Tarrant County Medical Examiner’s Office for an autopsy.

Sayer was a graduate of Granbury High School. The crash happened in the Indian Harbor subdivision where he lived.
