Search For Missing Swimmer At Edgewater Beach

Edgewater Beach

CLEVELAND - Officials with the U.S. Coast Guard and Cleveland Fire Department say a call came in just after 8 p.m. Thursday, saying that witnesses saw a 60-year-old man go into the waters of Lake Erie and never came out.

Divers searched the area using sonar equipment with no success.

WKYC-TV, Channel 3, was on-sight and posted this video to their Facebook page:

Cleveland Fire officials say they could not find any indications a swimmer was missing and it was unlikely the search would be resumed Friday, however, Rangers with Cleveland Metroparks will be posted on the beach to conduct a shore-based search.
