The popular “Shootout” boat race at the Lake of the Ozarks was temporarily called off Saturday afternoon to search for a man who went missing. 23-year-old Sean Burgess of Peoria, Illinois was last seen by friends and family laying on a large flotation device while watching the race. Divers searched for Burgess for several hours and eventually recovered his body underwater Saturday night.
