WARSAW, Ky. — A river rescue for one of three men who fell into the Ohio River near Warsaw, Ky. on Monday has been called off.
Police said Joseph McDermott, Jeremy Pence and Justin Hearn were hunting and had shot a goose and were on their way to retrieve the bird when their boat capsized shortly before noon.
McDermott and Pence floated to shore and went to a nearby house for help before they were transported to the hospital for hypothermia, according to police. Hearn, 20, never resurfaced.
Crews from several jurisdictions searched for Hearn until dark.
Crews will return to the river on Tuesday.
