Officials halt Lake Erie search
TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) — Authorities have again suspended the search for two boaters still missing in western
Lake Erie after the bodies of a woman and a teenage girl were found off the Ohio shoreline.
The Port Clinton News-Herald reports the Department of Natural Resources planned to search for the
anglers today, but the Ottawa County sheriff had no such plans.
The newspaper says the men missing since Wednesday are presumed dead because authorities don’t think they
could survive days in chilly waters.
Searchers found a partially submerged boat Thursday on a reef near the Davis-Besse nuclear power plant
east of Toledo and later spotted the bodies of two females, who wore life jackets.
The sheriff’s office identified them as 33-year-old Amy Santus of Perrysburg and 16-year-old Paige Widmer
of Leesville, S.C.
