Police later found his car crashed and still running without him inside it, WJLA reported. Police said at the time that Coleman may have had a medical episode before the crash.
On Tuesday, police found a body in a nearby pond but have not confirmed if it was Coleman’s.
Meanwhile, family and friends held a vigil Tuesday night for Coleman at his old high school.
“His spirit was one of warmth ... He was a phenomenal young man and was just a joy,” said family friend Alene Devereaux.
