Benton man’s body recovered on Kentucky Lake

Foul play is not suspected after a man’s body was recovered from the Jonathan Creek area of Kentucky Lake Friday morning.

Marshall County Chief Deputy Coroner Curt Curtner says multiple agencies responded to the report of a body in the water and recovered the body of 50-year old James Collins of Benton.

Collins has been camping in the area and while an autopsy will determine cause of death, foul play is not suspected.
