9-year old Joey Cavallaro of Garretson went missing Friday morning. Saturday morning the search ended tragically when his body was found in Split Rock Creek.

Investigators say Cavallaro went swimming with friends earlier in the day and they think he went swimming on his own later.

The tragedy serves as a reminder to be safe and careful around creeks, rivers and lakes, especially with children present.
