Louisa County, Va. - Police investigating a Henrico man's disappearance and death say there are no initial signs of foul play, according to WTVR.

A body was found in Havey's truck Sunday. Investigators have not confirmed the body is Havey's, but family members confirmed the discovery of the Henrico father.

Family members posted a statement about the end for their search on Facebook:

Tonight, the search for Edward Robert Havey III, has drawn to a close with the recovery of Rob and his vehicle. We’d like to thank everyone who has prayed, shared, and searched. You truly have made an impact for his family and they are ever grateful for the love you all have shown them in such dark days. Right now, they have asked for privacy and respect, as they grieve the loss of a husband, father, son, and brother. Obviously, there are a lot of questions and blanks to be filled. More information will be provided when it is appropriate.

CBS 6 says Havey's truck was found on Pony Farm Road in Lousia County over the weekend.

The discovery of Havey's body comes just after his family offered a $5,000 reward for information to help police locate the man.

Police started looking for Havey after he was last seen March 17 after leaving work at Glenside and Broad Street in Richmond, Virginia.
