Tragic Discovery at Weston Reservoir
On Thursday, the Oneida County Sheriff's Office, along with Oneida County Search and Rescue and Oneida County Ambulance recovered a car from Weston Reservoir near the border with Franklin County. West Bountiful police confirmed later that the car contained Kay Prince Vest, who had been reported missing on April 8. The car had been spotted by a local fisherman, according to Detective Jenny Hawkes who headed up the investigation for the Sheriff’s Office. The same fisherman had reported a break in the fence line near the area several weeks ago, but had not seen any evidence of a vehicle or damage to the landscape and presumably assumed that it was the result of a hit and run from which the vehicle had fled the scene. The fisherman repaired the fence at the time, and had not mentioned it until spotting what he thought might be a vehicle and alerting authorities.
