MONROE, Mich. (AP) - The U.S. Coast Guard and others are searching Lake Erie for four fishermen whose 19-foot boat sailed from Monroe a day earlier.
The men, who are between 50 and 70 years old, left Sterling Park Thursday morning.
Concerned family members contacted the Coast Guard Thursday night.
Coast Guard Commander David Beck says since that time, boats, helicopters and other types of aircraft from the U.S. and Canada have been looking for the men.
