17 dead after duck boat capsizes on Table Rock Lake
This is awful. So sad...
NEAR BRANSON, Mo. -- The Stone County Sheriff confirms eight fatalities involved in a duck boat capsizing on Table Rock Lake Thursday. Emergency crews responded to the incident shortly after 7 p.m. after a severe line of thunderstorms rolled through the area. Sheriff Doug Rader reports the boat had 31 people on board. He tells KY3 News four of those have been transported to a hospital. Some of the 31 on board include children. Divers are on the scene searching for more possible victims. The sheriff says he does not know how many on the boat are missing. The sheriff is asking for any family missing someone to go to Branson City Hall. It remains a rescue and recovery mission. http://www.ky3.com/content/news/Emer...488679201.html Last edited by Dartgod; 07-20-2018 at 11:53 AM.. Reason: updated the number of casualties |

Oh no! My RWD Ford dually skidded off the road and killed someone when I drove it in the ice! This is the truck's fault! |

And I would guess the boats have served hundreds of thousands, if not into the millions of people. |

It’s common for a Medical Examiner/Coroner office to have arrangements with other offices to handle storage issues. Funeral homes may provide temporary storage space for example. I do not know how storage was handled in this particular case.
