Justin Atchison, 24, died on November 10, 2018, in a hunting accident north of Cave Spring, Missouri, off Farm Road 81 in Greene County.

The Greene County Sheriff’s Office investigated and concluded the death was accidental, finding no evidence of foul play; no arrests were made. A Justin Atchison Scholarship Fund was established in his memory.
