    SYMSONIA, Kentucky (WPSD) — Kentucky State Police Post 1 is searching for a Calloway County man after his car was found in flood waters in Graves County.

According to a news release from KSP, 39-year-old Samuel Wilson was last seen by family on Feb. 16. His car was found submerged on Feb. 17. He was not located in or around the car and family members say they haven’t seen or heard from him since.
