Search continues for missing boaters at Wollaston Lake

The search for boaters that have been missing for just over two weeks at Wollaston Lake continues.

On Oct. 13 the Wollaston Lake RCMP received a complaint about three overdue boaters, two males and one female. One male boater left Wollaston Lake at approximately 12:30 p.m. to pick up the other male and the female at the barge landing. However, they were supposed to return two and a half hours later, but they did not make it back.

Three days later on Oct. 16, after a search effort was made, found one of the men deceased.

According to a media release, the search has now become reactive in nature which means the police will do targeted searching when they receive new information.
