Sheriff: Body found in Arkansas lake is missing man

Authorities say the body found in Lake Conway by a fisherman Saturday morning is that of a man who went missing in Conway last month.

The Faulkner County sheriff’s office said Larry Brownson II, who was last seen the evening of March 24 near South Sessions Road in Conway, was found in the Art Pond Area of Lake Conway around 9 a.m. Saturday.

The Faulkner County coroner’s office identified Brownson by his tattoos, the agency said on Facebook.

The coroner’s office has ordered an autopsy at the Arkansas state Crime Laboratory, the sheriff said. Authorities said Brownson’s cause of death was still unknown.

The case remains under investigation.
