We Lost one of our own here
MONETT, Mo. -- Searchers found the body of Mark Speir about two miles downstream from downtown Monett on Wednesday morning. The 19-year-old man fell into Kelly Creek on Tuesday afternoon and couldn’t grab onto a bridge because the current was too swift. His body was next to an abandoned mobile home park.
Speir is the fifth death from flash floods in southern Missouri this week. Parts of southern Missouri received more than 10 inches of rain between Monday and Wednesday.
The rains ended Wednesday but rivers across the region continue to rise.
This is where he fell in
