SUN: Search resumes for missing boater on Susquehanna River

MARYLAND (WBFF) — Search efforts resumed Saturday on the Susquehanna River for a missing boater last seen Wednesday night near the Hatem Memorial Bridge, as crews entered the third day of the search.

Mark Everett Coates III, of Havre de Grace, was last known to be operating a 10-foot jon boat near the U.S. Route 40 bridge on Nov. 4, according to the Maryland Natural Resources Police.

Officials urged boaters to stay clear of the search area between the Tydings Memorial Bridge on Interstate 95 and the Amtrak bridge. High winds have made conditions unsafe for vessels other than rescue crews.

Aviation resources were expected to assist with the search throughout Saturday. Drone flights in the area are restricted to law enforcement and emergency response personnel.
