Jordan Rainwater, Jonathan Sanchez Obituary, Death – Early Friday morning, a tragic accident in Clay County resulted in three fatalities and one injury. According to the Arkansas Department of Public Safety, the victims were 27-year-old Jordan Rainwater from Knobel, 30-year-old Jonathan Sanchez from Trumann, and 44-year-old Brian Pruett from Blytheville. Johnny Holt, a 47-year-old from Lepanto, survived but was injured.
The accident occurred around midnight on August 2, when Rainwater was driving a 2004 Cadillac Escalade southbound on Clay 232 Road. As the vehicle approached a left-hand curve, it failed to navigate the turn properly, causing it to veer off the road.
The Escalade then rolled over and the passenger side struck an embankment in a ditch. The vehicle ultimately ended up upside down and submerged in water.
The report indicates that both road conditions and weather were clear at the time of the crash.
