The U.S. Coast Guard is back on Western Lake Erie on Friday, searching for an 11-year-old boy who went missing while boating on Thursday.
Coast Guard Sector Detroit was notified around 11 a.m. on Thursday that its partner agencies were investigating an incident related to the missing boy.
Sector Detroit activated Station Marblehead to the scene, where they found the vessel, but not the child.
An Air Station Detroit MH-60 Dolphin helicopter crew was launched to assist in the search, but after exhausting its resources, including the crew reaching its fatigue limit, had to call it off overnight.
They started searching Friday morning again at first light.
The Ohio Department of Natural Resources, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Jerusalem Fire Department, and the Toledo Fire Department are assisting in the search.
Anyone with information is asked to immediately contact the U.S. Coast Guard Sector Detroit at 833-388-8724.
