Officials in Loudon County said Sunday that they found the body of a second missing teenager in the Tennessee River.
Authorities say three teenage boys were involved in a multi-county car chase early Wednesday morning (April 9, 2025). One of the teenagers was apprehended a few hours later that morning and taken to the hospital with major injuries. He reportedly said that while he and the other two males were trying to evade police, all three of them jumped off the Tennessee River Bridge in Loudon County. They reportedly fell about 80 feet into the river.
The body of one of the boys was found on Friday.
After five days of searching, the body of the second missing teenager was found on Sunday.
Their names were not immediately released.
