Calvert County Sheriff Mike Evans confirmed this morning that an adult male, Demetrius Hall, was found dead Monday in a lake within Chesapeake Ranch Club.
A Ranch Club resident contacted The Bay Net on Monday night to report a 14-year-old neighbor discovered the body while boating and notified police.
Sheriff Evans said Hall ran from police on Friday night when officers responded to a report of a large party with possible drug activity in the Ranch Club.
Police learned later that the man who ran from police was Hall, 26. Evans said one officer gave chase, but pulled back after the running man entered the woods.
"At the time we didn't know who we were dealing with, or why he was running," Evans told The Bay Net.
On Saturday, Hall's mother called police to report he never returned home Friday. On Saturday and Sunday, officials conducted an extensive search of the area and water, with bloodhounds and rescue boats.
"We did everything we could do," the Sheriff said.
Evans said officers learned that Hall may have been running because he had an active warrant from St. Mary's County.
