A July 4 celebration ended in tragedy this week when a Mississippi teenager on a boating trip with friends went missing, and his body was found on the shore days later, authorities reported. An investigation has been launched into the death of 18-year-old Nolan Xavier Wells, as speculation about the circumstances of the case spreads online. Wells was last seen boating with friends around 3 p.m. on Saturday near Horn Island, a barrier island off the coast of Mississippi accessible only by boat, according to the Jackson County Sheriff's Department. He was wearing blue swim trunks and sunglasses. Wells' mother reported him missing that night after he did not return on the boat with the rest of the group, according to Ben Crump, the prominent civil rights attorney hired by Wells' family.
