State to Direct Search for Teens

By Austin Carter

Graves County, Kentucky – The families of the teenage duck hunters whose boat capsized January 10th on Kentucky Lake are hoping search efforts will resume soon. The Paducah Sun reports the search for the two boys still missing stopped when the ice storm swept through west Kentucky. Marshall County Judge-Executive Mike Miller secured a representative from the State Department of Homeland Security to co-ordinate the search but state crews are still busy repairing storm damage. Rescue workers attempted to resume the search on Saturday but were hampered by high winds.
