August 16, 2010
CLAYTON, Ind. -- An Indiana National Guard soldier's body was pulled from a pond in Hendricks County early Monday morning after his apparent drowning over the weekend.

The Hendricks County Sheriff's Department said the body of Spc. Samuel Donahue, 21, was recovered at about 3 a.m., two days after he was last seen.

Officers had been told that Donahue hadn't been accounted for since Saturday morning after he consumed alcohol at a bar and at a home on County Road 400 South, Lt. Jim Yetter said.

"He had been out drinking with some friends Friday night into Saturday morning," Lt. Jim Yetter. "They had come to this residence and had been swimming in the pond."

Yetter said Donahue and a friend left the pond and went into the house, but that the other man woke up later, didn't see Donahue and thought he had gone home.

Donahue's girlfriend filed the missing persons report after determining that no one knew where he was.
