Law enforcement officials Wednesday night announced they had recovered the body of a small child near State Highway 146 in Texas City.

It was not immediately clear whether the child was the 2-year-old who the College Station Police Department has been searching for and was reported missing Sunday morning.

Investigators are working to determine the identity of the child, according to a statement from the Department of Public Safety.

The statement added: "This is an active and ongoing collaborative investigation with the assistance of the Houston and Bellaire Police Departments. Further details are not available for release at this time."

Authorities have been asking for the public's help with any information on the recent activity and/or travels of Tiandra Christon or her daughter.

Christon has been charged with child endangerment and false report to a police officer, according to reports of online jail records.

According to television reports earlier this week, police have been working with local, state and national agency to pursue any leads in locating the missing girl.

As police were searching Gabbard Park for 2-year-old Hazana Anderson, they found clothing and an object in a black bag in a nearby dumpster, according to an affidavit. The clothes were the same ones that Hazana was reportedly wearing when she went missing.
