LONOKE COUNTY, Ark— A grieving family is pleading for answers following the discovery of a man’s body in a roadside ditch in Lonoke County, in what Arkansas State Police are now calling a death investigation.
Authorities say 28-year-old Nathan Hall, of Benton, was reported missing by his family last week after he failed to check in with his probation officer. Just days later, on October 17 at around 12:10 p.m., the Lonoke County Sheriff’s Office responded to a call about a body found along Arkansas Highway 165, about a mile south of Mulberry Cemetery in England, Arkansas.
