American Angler Presumed Drowned

OPP divers are searching for the body of an American angler, who died in a plane crash on a lake about 2.5 hours northwest of Thunder Bay.
The pilot and three of four American men in a float plane were able to swim to shore after jumping from the aircraft before it sank Saturday.
But a 41-year-old Illinois man is missing and presumed drowned.
The three rescued fishermen suffered minor injuries while the pilot is recovering from head wounds.
The plane was owned and operated by a Kakabeka Falls-based outfitter.
