Body found in Canyon Lake leads to murder investigation

Man found dead previously arrested on drug charges

CANYON LAKE, Texas – On Thursday morning, Comal County authorities found the body of Christopher Alan Kennedy, 56, in an RV next to the Lakeside Cafe in the 12800 block of FM 306.

An autopsy revealed he died from a gunshot wound and authorities were able to execute a search warrant on the property Friday evening.  

In March, Kennedy was arrested at the location after a lengthy investigation that led to a raid at the restaurant.  

Investigators found 50 grams of cocaine, 10 grams of methamphetamine and 9 ounces of marijuana during the raid.  

Kennedy faced two charges of manufacturing and delivery of a controlled substance but posted a $35,000 bond.  

Comal County officials would not say if that arrest was connected with his murder.  

They are asking that anyone with information about the shooting call their criminal investigation department at 830-643-6699.
