Boating Death in Chicot County
May 18th, 2018 by
The Arkansas Game & Fish notified the Chicot County Sheriff, Tuesday afternoon, of a abandoned boat found on Grand Lake, near Eudora.
An examination of the boat determined it was still at full throttle & was out of gas. After running the boat verification number, it was determined the boat was registered to Tom Willis Stovall, age 79, of Fouke.
Family members confirmed that Mr. Stovall was indeed at Grand Lake fishing. Appropriate first responders began a search, and found his body on Wednesday around noon.
The body has been sent to the State Crime Lab for autopsy to determine the cause of death.
Sheriff Ron Nichols would like to thank all of the agencies involved, especially Lake Village Fire & Rescue. “They are all a group of volunteers that give of their time for the good of Chicot County.”
