On Nov. 25, 2013 a missing person report was filed with Marshall County SO.  Operator was reported to have been drinking alcohol on the night of Nov. 15 2013 and had stated that he was going to drive his 25' house boat to Short Creek to anchor out for the night.  I located the victim's boat about a mile up stream from Guntersville Dam on Nov. 26, 2013 with no occupants on board. I observed a broken antenna mount and what appeared to be scuffs from the sole of a shoe on the starboard side of the boat.  
body has not been recovered and the search and investigation is still ongoing.
It is assumed the victim fell overboard due to alcohol use and position on the boat (on the gunwale).
