BOILING SPRINGS, N.C. – Searches will resume Tuesday for a missing man in Cleveland County, but officials say the operation is now a recovery mission.

  • Crews have been looking for Keenan Little since he was last seen entering the water from a beach access along the Broad River Greenway just after 1:30 p.m. Saturday.
  • Witnesses say they saw him go under water, but never came back up.
  • Due to the swiftness of the water there, crews have had a hard time pinpointing where his body might be.

Kennan Little, 34, has been missing since Saturday. He was last seen entering the Broad River off the greenway.

Search teams are using sonar and drones to try to locate Little, however strong currents are making the process more difficult for them.

A helicopter was used over the weekend for a fly-over and police say they may do another one if Little isn’t found in the next few days.
