Crews continue to search for Lucas Rosales, a missing 7-year-old boy last seen Saturday near Eastwood MetroPark and Harshman Road in Dayton.

The Kentucky State Legislature and Governor Andy Beshear have authorized an urban search and rescue team to respond to towns across the state and beyond if necessary.

The Colerain Fire Department said crews responded to a pond on Stone Mill Road after receiving a call at around 6:15 p.m. about a man who fell into a pond.

An Ohio Task Force 1 public information officer says the team members are expected to be down in Florida for 14 days.

Help is on the way from our area as people volunteer and provide support.

The Indiana Fire Chiefs Association recently honored RFDs community paramedicine program and Chief Jerry Purcell.

Members of Ohio Task Force 1, including many from Northeast Ohio, deployed to help with the rescue and recovery efforts.

Together task force members were able to conduct more than 8,700 house-by-house structure searches, saving hundreds of people and pets from dangerous situations.

By the numbers, the 84-member team helped in dozens of rescues and made 4,500 building-to-building searches.

Ohio Task Force 1 is returning home from Florida on Monday after spending two weeks helping with Hurricane Ian recovery.
