Searchers have found the body of a missing fisherman in Smithville lake over the weekend.

The Missouri Highway Patrol’s water patrol division found the body of 72-year-old Gordon Carr around 1:15 Sunday afternoon.

His boat was found Friday in the lake without the man and his car was parked near a dock.

Troopers searched the water Saturday as family members sat nearby. The search was called off but resumed Sunday morning.  An autopsy is scheduled this week.
