A diphtheria carrier, likely unaware of infection, is being sought by the Arkansas Health Department. A Siloam Springs woman exposed to the carrier was hospitalized, with officials saying no clues exist yet and that the carrier could be any age or sex. Health teams in Bentonville and Fayetteville are active.
Sheriff Frank Mackey said the skeleton found on the Arkansas River bank south of Little Rock is that of an elderly man of small stature. Identification by Dr Roy D Hoke deputy state medical examiner at UAMS confirms the find though no clues to the man’s name or cause of death have been found.
