Authorities looking for possible drowning victim

Members of the Crittenden County Rescue Squad, along with Illinois authorities, continue to search the Ohio River near Dam 50 Recreation where a boat capsized last night after midnight.

One male was recovered, but one male is still missing.

The two people, from Indiana, were camping at Dam 50 and set out on the river in a 12-foot john boat, sheriff Wayne Agent said. One of those who went overboard was rescued at about 1 a.m., this morning.
