Crews have resumed searching for an international soldier missing from central Missouri's Fort Leonard Wood.

He is one of several people missing after heavy rains caused extensive flooding. Recovery efforts also are underway in Polk and Jasper counties.

The soldier was last seen with four other international soldiers who drowned Saturday night when their vehicle was swept off a Pulaski County road. Sheriff Ron Long said Tuesday that the search is focused on that area.

Fort Leonard Wood says the soldiers were part of a program that brings troops from other countries to the installation to study. Their names and where they are from hasn't been released.

Two other people also drowned in Pulaski County after a second vehicle was swept away, also on Saturday.
