A 39-year-old man from El Salvador is missing after being swept under in the Buffalo River on Tuesday afternoon.
According to a release from the National Parks Service (NPS), Fidel Angel Salamanca Saravia was swimming with friends at Grinders Ferry, a section of the river 10 miles north of Marshall, Ark., when he apparently lost his footing and was swept underwater by the current. He was not wearing a life jacket.

The Buffalo isn't a really dangerous river... but it is a river and if you hit the wrong spot you're pretty much screwed. It is a rocky river so if you go under there is a good chance you'll hit something hard. Whack your head and you aren't coming up again.
