Overview
- Two 28-year-old women, Jazzmin Hock and Sarah Vida, and 9-year-old Kayden Kovalcik were reported missing after they were last seen tubing on the Muskegon River on Tuesday.
- The inquiry began when the father of one of the missing women found her vehicle at the Maple Island Boat Launch with a broken-out window, prompting police to open a search and investigation.
- Authorities say the group was believed to be using orange and pink inner tubes and have asked anyone who saw them or found the tubes to call the Michigan State Police Hart Post or Newaygo County dispatch.
- Rescue teams from multiple agencies have been searching riverbanks and water corridors and as of the latest reports there has been no public confirmation of a recovery.
- Families remain unable to reach the three and officials warn the public to stay away from active search zones while investigators continue to gather evidence and follow leads.
