BREAKING NEWS: 74-Year-Old Man Found Dead in Lawrence County

A 74-year-old man was found dead this morning after he went missing from his home in Lawrence County. Eugene Ross was reported missing by his wife about 6 p.m. Thursday in Pulaski Township. Police said his wife told them he takes daily ATV rides and left their home on Rayner Road about 3 p.m. Police say they recovered Eugene Ross’s body in the woods near his home. Coroner is investigating the cause of death. Ross had a medical condition, but officials did not elaborate. Crews were out all night and into this morning looking for Ross. They searched on foot and used ATVs and a helicopter. K-9s were also brought in. The search area consisted of more than 500 acres of land, most of which is wooded, officials said. Because the ground is frozen, crews were unable to find any tire tracks from Ross’ ATV. Ross’ body was found this morning and the coroner was called.
