The Pope County Sheriff’s Office got a call around 3:18 a.m. that a boat had overturned on Lake Dardanelle, according to Pope County Sheriff Aaron Duvall.
Two men reportedly swam to shore and two were missing at the time.
At approximately 1:45 p.m., side scan sonar located one of the men and Arkansas Game and Fish divers went down and located both men at that site.
Victims are 40-year-old Xing Wu Dong of Russellville and 26-year-old Tan Jiang from the search area, according to Duvall.
All four men were related and fishing together. The boat was recovered and no foul play is suspected.
