The son of country star Craig Morgan and Karen Greer, Jerry Greer, was found dead, E! News confirms.
Greer was reported missing earlier today following a boating accident on Kentucky Lake in Humphreys County, Tenn. The teen's dead body was found in the water after a fleet of emergency responders had been searching for the 19-year-old since he was reported missing Sunday evening.
E! News previously reported that Jerry and another man were reportedly tubing when they were thrown from the tube. The unidentified man resurfaced, but Jerry, who was wearing a life vest, did not.
Rob Edwards, Chief Deputy from the Humphreys County Sheriffs Office, told E! News that the investigation was ongoing earlier today.
"Jerry and another man were on a raft being pulled by a boat. They were thrown from the raft and Jerry never resurfaced. He was wearing a life jacket at the time but went under. We are currently searching for him with several boats. We will update you once we know more," he says in the statement. "The Tennessee Wildlife Recourses Agency is conducting the investigation as to what happened that led up to these events."
Our sincerest condolences go out to the Greer family during this difficult time.
