'Buckwild' Star Shain Gandee Found Dead In West Virginia After He Went Missing Sunday

Star from "Buckwild," Shain Gandee was found dead inside a vehicle in West Virginia Monday.

The MTV reality star was reported missing Sunday, according to law enforcements. He was found, along with two other bodies inside Sissonville, W. Va., which is where a lot of scenes from "Buckwild" took place.

TMZ reported Sunday that Gandee, 21, was last heard from around 3 a.m. on Sunday morning, when he and his uncle David Gandee told people they planned to go 4-wheeling.

It's unclear if 48-year-old David was one of the deceased people in the vehicle where Gandee's body was discovered. 

Fellow cast-mate and friend, Tyler Boulet expressed his grief through Twitter.

"RIP Shain Gandee. I love you brother. #PrayForGandeeFamily," Boulet said on his Twitter account. "God is with us always. Even though our buddy passed, he's in a better place. God is taking care of Shain now."

Ever since the show's successful first season on MTV, cast members got in trouble with the law.

Salwa Amin was in custody Monday after violating terms of her release on pending drug charges. Michael Douglas Burford was charged in February with driving under the influence.

Before these two charges and the death of Gandee, "Buckwild" was renewed for a second season, following its premiere in January.

"Ever since #BuckWild the ladies have been wantin me," Shain Gandee tweeted, which was his final tweet.
