250 Search for Boy Scout Who Fell Into River
- Share via
A search for a 13-year-old Boy Scout who fell into the fast-moving Yellowstone River expanded into Montana as nearly 250 park officials and volunteers scoured the river by kayak and on foot.
Luke Sanburg of Helena, Mont., was pushing logs into the river with other Scouts Friday when one of the logs clipped his legs, knocking him into the river. He was last seen floating downstream with his head above water, the National Park Service said. Kayakers aided in the search.
Two white tennis shoes, fitting the description of a pair worn by Luke, were found about five miles downstream.
