ASHDOWN, Ark. (AP) - Authorities in Little River County say the son of Ashdown's mayor has drowned in a southeastern Oklahoma lake.

The Oklahoma Highway Patrol says 24-year-old Aaron Kyle Reed drowned Sunday in the Mountain Fork River near Broken Bow. Little River County Sheriff Danny Russell confirms Reed is the son of Ashdown Mayor Wayne Reed.

An OHP report says Aaron Reed was alone in a canoe when he became separated from the group he was canoeing with. His body was found in 7 feet of water near the U.S. Highway 70 bridge.
