Incident Report: Drowning Recovery Operation

On Sunday at approximately 10:00 PM, Russell County Search & Rescue (RCSAR) was requested by the Pulaski County Rescue Squad to assist in the recovery efforts for a drowning victim from an earlier accident that afternoon. Seven members from RCSAR responded the following morning and commenced search operations in collaboration with Christian Ministries, Pulaski County Rescue Squad, Kentucky Fish and Wildlife, and the Army Corps of Engineers.

At approximately 11:30 AM CST, the individual was located using sonar technology, and a Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) was deployed. The victim was brought to the surface, after which two divers from RCSAR entered the water to package and remove the victim from the water. The individual was then transported to the coroner’s office.
