Family shares memory of teen who drowned in Blue River

The family of a high school junior who drowned in the Blue River over the weekend is sharing the remarkable story of his young life.

Hsar Htoo, 18, slipped into shallow water while fishing on Friday and was swept away by the current. His body was recovered on Saturday.

He attended East High School and his family said he was coming into his own after spending most of his life in a refugee camp.

“He’s got a lot of friends,” said his sister, Nyunt Ayen. “Girls, they love him.” (Courtesy of kmbc.com)
