2nd body found after SUV with 6 hunters crashes into river

UPDATE 6/15/18: Idaho authorities say a second body has been recovered after a vehicle carrying six hunters crashed into a fast-moving river last month.

The Idaho County Sheriff’s Office says crews recovered the body of 21-year-old Koby Clark of Bozeman, Montana, on Thursday about 6 miles (9.5 kilometers) east of the community of Lowell.

Clark had been missing since May 21 when an SUV carrying six men went into the Selway River and flipped upside down in a remote part of Idaho near the Montana border.

Two Georgia men escaped the vehicle and made it to shore.

The body of 22-year-old Reece Rollins of Terrebonne, Oregon, was recovered earlier this week.

Brothers Raymond and Jesse Ferrieri, ages 24 and 21, of Mahopac Falls, New York, haven’t been seen since the crash.

ORIGINAL:

Authorities say the body of an Oregon man has been recovered from an Idaho river.

The Idaho County Sheriff’s Office reported Wednesday night that the remains of Reece Rollins, one of four hunters who went missing after an early-morning crash May 21 into the Selway River, was found late Tuesday.

Deputies say search and rescue crews found the body partially submerged and wedged between a boulder and a log.

Authorities say dental records and tattoos were used to identify the victim as the 22-year-old Rollins of Terrebonne.

Two others had escaped when the SUV carrying six men left a road and flipped upside-down into the water in a remote part of Idaho near the Montana border.

The three other men are still missing.
