MONTEREY, Tenn. (WTVF) — A 9-year-old boy died Thursday afternoon after falling from Bee Rock, according to the Monterey Police Department.
Police said 911 received a call reporting that an individual had fallen from the area. Emergency personnel responded and descended to where the child was located.
Officers and Putnam County EMS began life-saving measures, but those efforts were unsuccessful. The boy was later brought to the top of Bee Rock and transported by EMS to the State Medical Examiner’s Office.

The aftermath of the historic ice storm will be felt for a long time by many, but what looked like a hopeless situation for one small business owner proved to be quite the opposite. This community would not let her fail. Patsy Montesinos shares the story with a truly happy ending.
