Mystery mounted on Grand Bahama over the weekend as police continued to investigate the disappearance of two young men authorities believe were together just before they went missing.<\/p>\n
Deangelo Cooper, 20, and Deroun Edgecombe alias “Sammy”, 27, were last seen on August 15 when the pair left Cooper’s house and drove off in separate vehicles, police said.<\/p>\n
According to authorities, Angela Cooper, 41, of #4 Trumpeter Drive in Freeport came to the island’s Central Police Station last Thursday night reporting that her son left home in a green mini van on August 15 and she had not seen or heard from him since.<\/p>\n
The following day, Melony Webb, 45, of #10 East Atlantic Drive came to the Central Detective Unit and reported that sometime on Sunday, August 14 her nephew, Deroun, left home and had not returned, according to authorities.<\/p>\n
She reportedly said her nephew had lived with her for a year and she feared something had gone wrong since he had not returned.<\/p>\n
Police said Cooper was last seen wearing a pair of blue jeans, a white t-shirt and a pair of white tennis shoes, and Edgecombe wearing a white t-shirt and a pair of long blue jeans.<\/p>\n
