Pond drained in search: http://douglasnow.com/index.php/news/item/4300-alma-police-drain-pond-in-search-for-missing-person

On June 8, local public safety personnel, city and county workers, and Department of Corrections employees/inmates drained a local pond to determine if Willie Frank Wooden was located within the pond. Efforts began Wednesday to drain the pond, but rain which began during the day and lingered into the night hindered the draining of the pond. DNR and local law enforcement did drag the inner perimeter of the pond in its entirety but did not discover Mr. Wooden or any items of concern. Law enforcement has no reason to believe Mr. Wooden is located in the pond; but due to the location of the pond, and the fact the pond exists in a heavily traveled area, law enforcement received permission from the owner to drain the pond for certainty.
