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 |

I'm not sure exactly where they put in at but I'm pretty sure it's in the bigger water area towards the damn.

Still 6 people missing, so I assume the number of dead will rise to 17. Tragic...

That looks like a shitty way to go out. Not that there is some awesome way to die, but drowning in a duck boat is not cool.
