CASPER, Wyo. (AP) — The body of a missing 7-year-old boy was found Tuesday. The Casper Star-Tribune reported that police said the boy and his father went missing last Thursday after leaving their campsite at the Flaming Gorge Reservoir.

Police learned that the father and son had left the campsite on an ATV late Thursday.

Officials later found a submerged ATV in the water below a 250-foot cliff and recovered the body of a man who matched the description of the missing father.

A body that matched the description of the missing boy was found two days later. Neither were identified.
