A dive team and rescue boat has been seen on a sandbar called “Firecracker Island.”
Officials say Firecracker Island connects to a larger piece of land.
There was also a boat that had three people on it, and officials say they got off to walk the sandbar when an undercurrent came up, pulling two people underwater, with one person being able to make their way up to safety.
Officials say the 23-year-old man is from Van Buren Township.
