EAST CHICAGO, Indiana - A young man who went into Lake Michigan when the boat he was on capsized Saturday has still not been found.
Kelvin Soto Crespo, 20, of Yabucoa, Puerto Rico, was with three other people on the 18-foot Bayliner runabout on Saturday afternoon when it went under several miles off the East Chicago marina.
The two other boaters were rescued by the Coast Guard and one was pulled from the lake by a good Samaritan.
Searchers looked for Crespo on Saturday and on Sunday, but found no sign of him or the boat. Weather permitting, Indiana Conservation Officers and the Lake County Marine Unit will resume the search Monday morning.
