The Identity of the man killed in a boating accident on Spring River Saturday has been released. The Arkansas Game and Fish Commission says 64 year old Donald Wright of Searcy Ar was killed in the accident, which happened after a sinkhole developed below the falls at Sadler Falls, near Dead Man’s Curve.  The commission along with the Army corps of Engineers and Fulton county authorities have set up buoys and roped off the area where the whirlpool is located. The river remains open, but officials ask that people avoid the barricaded area. Engineers will be in the area this week to investigate the area.
