WILKINSON COUNTY, Ga. — Wilkinson County authorities are searching for a man who fell into the Oconee River and did not resurface, according to Mark McKinnon with the Georgia Department of Natural Resources.
Game wardens responded to a possible drowning Saturday around 2:30 p.m.
When authorities arrived, witnesses told them that a man had overturned in a canoe just south of Balls Ferry State Park.
The search began immediately and continued until a little after 8 p.m. Saturday. McKinnon says they'll resume the search Sunday morning.
This is a developing story.
