On Sunday night, Charlie Griffin was boating with a friend in the Outer Banks of North Carolina when he went missing.

According to a Coast Guard spokesperson to The Virginian-Pilot, they hadn’t been seen or heard from since 6:15 that night.

Coast Guard members and local first responders found the empty boat on Monday. They went inside and found Griffin and his dog’s bodies.

Officials are still looking for the second person who was supposed to be on the trip as of Monday evening.

A heartbreaking post on Griffin’s Facebook page, Reels of Fortune, confirmed that he had died.

A photo of Griffin smiling and getting some sun was posted with the words, “It is with the deepest sadness that we report that Charlie Griffin and his beloved dog, Leila, have died in a boating accident today.”

“Please keep family and friends in your thoughts and prayers.”

Griffin started working as an actor in North Carolina in Season 2 of Wicked Tuna and stayed until Season 5.

The ongoing reality TV show on National Geographic follows experienced fishermen who make a living by catching huge fish that can be worth tens of thousands of dollars.
