SALEM, Ore. (AP) - Authorities in western Oregon say crews are searching for an 11-year-old boy who disappeared in the Willamette River in Salem.

Lt. Dave Okada of the Salem Police Department tells KGW-TV (https://bit.ly/2t6s6QU) that the boy disappeared in the river on Friday and hasn’t been seen since.

Crews searched the river Friday night before suspending the search due to darkness. Crews planned to resume the search Saturday.
