Boater missing on Eagle Lake

3 August 2004

The Dryden OPP is continuing their search for a missing boater on Eagle Lake.
At about 9 a.m. yesterday, three people were traveling in a boat on the lake when the occupants were thrown into the water.
They were not wearing their life jackets, and after 15 minutes, other boaters came to assist them, and rescued two of the occupants. They did not suffer any injuries.
The marine unit of the Dryden OPP are continuing their search for the third boater and the OPP underwater Search and Recovery Unit are enroute to assist.
All occupants of the boat were residents of Illinois.
The Dryden OPP would like to remind everyone that wearing your life jacket while boating could save your life.
