Boater Found Safe After Escambia River Search
October 29, 2014
A search and rescue effort on the Escambia River near Molino had a happy outcome Tuesday night.
Someone called 911 and reported an overturned boat and a missing boater a few bends of the Escambia River south of the Fairground Road Boat Ramp. First responders from the Molino Station of Escambia Fire Rescue found that the older model 14-foot boat had hit a stump and was still upright. But the boater was no where to be found.
After a check of the boat’s registration and a few phone calls, authorities found the boat’s 19-year old owner safe and sound several miles away at his residence on Jack’s Branch Road.
