- Cajun Navy leader warns Nolan Wells' search area has deadly 'washing machine' currents: 'Lots of drownings'
Nolan Wells, 18, disappeared July 4 after a boat trip to Horn Island, Mississippi, and his remains were found two days later. A Cajun Navy leader warned the area is known for deadly 'washing machine' currents between Horn and Ship Islands, which have caused multiple drownings. Authorities do not suspect foul play, but questions remain about the gap between his last sighting and discovery.
