Well, they found his vehicle last night. It went off the road into a swampy/marshy area along the side of the Interstate. He was not in the vehicle when it was pulled out of the water. The vehicle rolled as it went down the embankment, so they are not sure if he was ejected or not.
They searched what they could last night and then searched all day today. The area that it went into has water about 20 foot deep, with a layer of marshy growth on top of it, so its been tough going. They have had dogs searching and also had divers in the water trying to go as deep and far in under the growth as they could.
At this point, they had to stop for the night and will likely not be able to search tomorrow due to the strong stormfront coming through our area. The plan, unless they can get a break tomorrow in the weather, is to start back up Monday, with more equipment that they can use to move around in the marsh.
Some people are still holding out hope he is alive, but at this point, we expect he did not make it, so we are hoping they are able to find him Monday so we can have closure.
