Cherokee Nation Marshalls have recovered the body of an 18-year-old who disappeared Thursday night at Lake Tenkiller.
The Oklahoma Highway Patrol said Cody Hancock of Muskogee surfaced after jumping off a 15-foot cliff just before 8 p.m. but then started struggling and went under.
Other swimmers couldn’t bring him up, and a search for Hancock was called off when it got too dark.
Hancock's body was found at 8:24 a.m., 11 feet underwater on a rock cliff ledge near where he was last seen.
