SAN ANTONIO (AP) - Randy "Rib King" Goss, the co-owner of the
County Line barbecue restaurant chain, has been found dead in a car
in a creek.
     
Bexar (bayr) County Sheriff's Office spokesman Deputy Ino
Badillo said a rescue team Thursday removed a body from a vehicle
in rain-swollen Cibolo Creek.
     
Restaurant manager Estevan Reyes, who works at a San Antonio
location, on Friday confirmed to The Associated Press that the man
was Goss. Reyes says services are pending for the 55-year-old
businessman.
     
Heavy rain led to barricades put across some roads. Badillo says
a woman contacted officers Wednesday night to say her husband had
not arrived home.
     
County Line has locations in El Paso, Austin, San Antonio,
Houston and the Conroe area. The company also has a restaurant in
Albuquerque, N.M., and one in Oklahoma City.
