The Texas Rangers and Breckenridge police discovered a body at a residence at 602 S. O’Connor St. today, Jan. 27, during their investigation into the disappearance of a 24-year-old woman, who was last heard from on Sunday, Jan. 18, according to Breckenridge Police Chief Blake Johnson. They are currently searching for a man identified as “a person of interest” in the death.
The deceased was identified as Chyra Davis, Johnson said.

According to a news release from Johnson this evening, the BPD received a report on Jan. 22 that Davis was missing. “The Breckenridge Police Department, with the assistance of the Texas Rangers, began a thorough investigation to locate Ms. Davis. Today, January 27, 2026, while conducting a search warrant, the Texas Rangers found a deceased female. The female is confirmed to be Chyra Davis,” the statement said.
“The Police Department is not releasing details at this time. We are working with the Texas Rangers, are following all possible leads and will provide updates as soon as possible about the investigation. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family of Ms. Davis,” Johnson said in the news release.
Johnson said her family has been notified.
Davis has been the subject of a multi-county search; she was originally from Mineral Wells, had been living in Breckenridge and had family in Graham. The family has been posting “missing person” posters online for several days and has been working with the police and Texas Rangers to try and locate Davis.
Davis’ aunt posted on Facebook that Davis’ phone had been turned off and she hadn’t replied to any messages from the family trying to contact her. She may have been injured at the time, based on discussions via TikTok before she suddenly got off of the app and never returned to the conversation, her family said.
Davis went to Mineral Wells High School and has a 2-year-old daughter.
