LUCAS, Ky. (AP) - Crews have recovered a man's body from Barren River Lake two days after friends said he went underwater and didn't resurface.
Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife officer Lucas Hurt told media that 21-year-old Clay Nelson of Bowling Green was found Tuesday near a water treatment intake zone at the Narrows area of the lake. He was reported missing Sunday while cliff diving with friends.
It was the third time in three days that crews recovered a body in area waterways.
The Daily News in Bowling Green reports 59-year-old Joe Hartman was pulled on Monday from Nolin Lake and the body of 42-year-old Phillip Leedy was pulled on Sunday from the Green River. Both had been boating.
