WTHI-TV reported that Indiana Conservation Officers said the morning of Saturday the 5th; they were searching for two missing people after their vehicle became submerged in flood waters. Their bodies were found later Saturday afternoon.
Officers were looking for a 24-year-old female and a 5-year-old boy, of Paragon. Both went missing early Saturday morning.
According to DNR officials, a female driver, the deceased female, and the deceased boy were traveling in a car on Moon Road when they became lost Saturday. The three were trying to make their way back to Paragon.
The driver of the car attempted to drive through high water. Officials say the road did not have a high water sign because it is so infrequently traveled.
After the driver entered the water, she tried to reverse, but the car was taken into the water. The two deceased could not swim, so the driver told them to get on top of the car while she swam to get help at a nearby home.
When the driver returned from getting help, the car, along with the two, were gone.
Officers searched the area for hours Saturday. Around 4:20 p.m., the boy's body was found in the flood waters. The female's was found shortly after, around 4:40 p.m. The bodies were found about 100 yards from the vehicle, which had drifted about 100 yards from its original location.

The White River in the area of Bogard Creek was extensively flooded, but not at a record stage.  Recent rainfall of one half to three quarters of a inch on wet to very wet ground caused Bogard Creek to overflow.  The time of the flooding was estimated based on the stage at a nearby river.
The Greene County Daily World reported that a rural Bloomfield man drowned after he apparently slipped and fell into a flood-swollen creek in Taylor Township on the morning of April the 8th. The victim, 62, lived on the property where Bogard Creek flows on U.S. 231, south of Bloomfield. The Greene County Coroner said no foul play is indicated and it looks like the victim may have been walking along the creek bank and simply fell into the water. The exact time of the incident has not been determined, but his body was found at about 11:30 AM by two close friends who had come to check on the victim. The victim's body was in two to three feet deep water and had been retrieved from the water by the friends when authorities arrived at the site, which is located in Taylor Township between County Road 400 and County Road 600.
