The search continues for the man who was reported missing while on an outing at Terrapin Creek Thursday afternoon. According to reports a 73 year old white male was inner-tubing down the creek and was later reported missing by family members and friends who made a call to Central Dispatch at around 7:00pm.
The Cherokee County Rescue Squad, area law enforcement, and a number of other agencies immediately responded to look for the missing subject, eventually even bringing in a drone equipped with infrared capabilities as darkness fell – however, they were unable to find the man.
The Rescue Squad and others have continued to search throughout the night in vain.
Anyone with any information should contact 9-1-1.
