(March 21, 2007)—Police now believe Texas A&M coed Tynesha Stewart, 19, who has been missing since March 15, was killed and her body was put in a trash dumpster in northwest Harris County.

The dumpster, however, has already been emptied and its contents taken to a landfill.

Stewart disappeared after going to see an ex-boyfriend while home on spring break.

The ex-boyfriend, who lives in the same apartment complex as Stewart’s mother, was the last person to see the missing coed, police said.

"He said they had a disagreement about her seeing another guy. There was no altercation or no fight," said Lt. John Martin of the Harris County Sheriff's Office.

"She left on foot (and) he hasn't seen her since."

Law enforcement officials, volunteers and family members spent a second day Tuesday searching a wooded area, miles away from the apartment complex and a dive team was called into to check Cypress Creek.
