A man from Camdenton was found dead Sunday after a motorcycle crash on Highway 134 near the Lake of the Ozarks State Park.

Donald Christian, 50, had gone out on his motorcycle Saturday night but never returned home, according to his wife, Britni. She turned to the community for help, asking people to check cameras for any sign of where he may have gone as authorities began searching for her husband.

Park Ranger Bales responded to assist the Missouri State Highway Patrol and Camden County Sheriff’s Office. Christian was found near the main campground entrance and was pronounced dead at the scene on Sunday, Nov. 8, by a Camden County Medical Examiner.

Investigators said Christian had crashed and was ejected from the motorcycle. No information has been released about what caused the accident.

“Devastated is an understatement,” Britni wrote on Facebook that evening.
