Missing Boater

Meagher County officials say a 68-year-old woman is missing after the boat she and her husband were in capsized on the Smith River.

The sheriff's office says the boat capsized between Indian Springs and Rock Creek at about 4 p.m. Monday.

A 60-year-old man was able to make it to a sandbar and was rescued at about 8:30 p.m. The woman could not be located Monday evening.

The search was expected to continue Tuesday with boats and aircraft.

The sheriff's office did not release the names of the couple or where they are from.

People are required to have a permit to float the Smith River.
