    Body Found In Submerged Truck Is Missing Floyd Co. Man

    Police say a body found in a submerged truck in Lake Cumberland in Pulaski County Thursday is that of a Floyd County man who had been missing for over a year.

    The truck and body of Sampie Sparkman, 63, were found near the Slate Branch Road boat dock. Officials say the truck was about 200 feet out and in about 20 feet of water. Divers had been contracted out to look for a missing camera and stumbled upon the truck.

    Sparkman was reported missing in May 2008 after he failed to show up for a planned visit with his daughter and granddaughter in Somerset. He had last been seen getting gas at a gas station in London.

    Police say they do not suspect any foul play in the death.
