(Lawrenceburg, Ind.) – The search continues for the bodies of Nylo Lattimore and James Hutchinson.
North Star International K9 Search and Recovery provided an update on the search earlier this week, stating “the river was against us”.
Due to heavy rains just a week ago, water covered a great amount of the search area near the Ohio River in Lawrenceburg.
The river shoreline was searched from the I-275 bridge past Aurora by trained searchers, along with certified cadaver dogs, and mounted horse unit.
Drones and helicopters were also used in the efforts.
Boats hit the water again Wednesday as the river has receded closer to normal levels. North Star International says boats will be out again Thursday, and a larger search with boats, dive team, dogs, horses and ground searchers will be out on Saturday.
