Two Teens Missing For Hours Found Safe Along The Perdido River Near Fillingim Landing
May 30, 2022
Two teens were safely located Sunday night over six hours after they went missing along the Perdido River.
Authorities are searching for two teens last seen Sunday afternoon at Fillingim Landing along the Perdido River near Barrineau Park.
Keeth Cooper Martinez, 17, an Gage Wallace Eicher, 16, were last seen at the landing at 2:30 p.m.at Fillingim Landing near Barrineau Park
They had crossed the river and were headed westbound into the woods on the Alabama side of Perdido River. They were unable to safely cross back over the river, which was at about nine feet Sunday night. That’s over double the four-foot reading early last week before heavy rains.

My prayer for the safety of those boys was answered, Thank you dear God, in Jesus’s name, amen.
Thank God they were found safe.
