On June 14th, the Nodaway County Sheriff’s Department posted the following news release about a teen drowning that happened in Barnard:
Tragedy struck our community and a Maryville family Thursday, June 13, 2019. At 1:54 PM, a teenage boy called 911 reporting that his swimming partner, a 16-year-old girl, had gone under water and not resurfaced at the 102 River in Barnard. This office responded deputies immediately to the scene, and at the same time, called resources to assist. These resources were the Barnard Fire Department, Tri C Fire Department, Maryville Fire, Maryville PD Mozingo Lake Water Officers, the Midwest Regional Dive Team consisting of Clarinda Fire, Ringgold County, Cass County, Adams County, and Red Oak, Iowa, the Missouri Department of Conservation, Missouri State Highway Patrol, and the Nodaway County Ambulance. I hope that I have included every agency that responded.

On arrival, the witness and reporting party pointed out where his swimming companion went under water. Deputies and other first responders went into the river searching this specific area. The Midwest Regional Dive Team sent divers into the river at 4:12 PM at the location where the girl was last seen. At 4:21 PM the diver found the girl’s body in deep water very near where she was last seen. With all respect and dignity, she was brought to the shore and was pronounced dead by Nodaway County Coroner Shelby. Our investigation has determined that this was an accident.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family of the girl who are suffering with this tragic loss. My deepest admiration for Deputy Logan who was able to find the right things to say to the mother and father of the girl. And recognition to Deputy Casteel and Reserve Deputy Gomez for searching the water and to the other first responders that also searched. To School Teacher Nancy Pulley who recognized the need to make sure that the boy that witnessed this was cared for and who accompanied me and Major Houston to visit with him and his parents to make sure he is cared for, and that counseling is made available to him. Thank you to the many volunteer first responders that help. God Bless.
