GARNETT — An autopsy indicates that a man whose body was recovered from a rural pond in Anderson County in February died as a result of accidental drowning and not as a result of any previous medical issues. Divers found the body of 56-year-old Andrew Yoder submerged in a private pond about 11 miles west of Garnett where he apparently had gone fishing Feb. 6. His boat was found capsized, but the Anderson County Review reported there was some speculation that Yoder may have suffered a medical emergency. The autopsy ruled that out, and showed that Yoder was not intoxicated, the paper reported. Instead, the autopsy found evidence that confirmed accidental drowning.
