(KAIR)--A body is discovered following the search of a Buchanan County pond Tuesday night.
KQ2-TV reports the discovery came as part of a search when a car was spotted in the water.
Rescue crews rushed to the scene, located near the Banker's Crossing Bridge, south of Saint Joseph, around 7:30. Upon their arrival, minutes after a passerby had reported seeing the car partially submerged, the vehicle had gone under the water.
The vehicle was found to be empty once retrieved, but the search continued, leading to the discovery of the body about an hour and a-half later.
The TV station reports the body is that of a man, but no additional information is yet made public during the early portion of the investigation.
