Two Interior residents are missing after a boating accident on the Yukon River. Alaska State Troopers report that a search is underway for 56-year-old Clifford Adams and 38-year-old Ai Adams, both residents of the Yukon Flats village of Beaver.
Troopers say a 3rd person, 45-year-old Kim Andon of Rampart was found walking along the river on Wednesday.
Andon said she and the Adams were returning to Beaver from a hunting trip on Sunday, when their boat overturned about six miles downstream of the village.
Andon told troopers the last time she saw the Adams’ they were unresponsive and that she was the only one wearing a life jacket when the boat flipped over. Search efforts for the Adams include boats and a helicopter.
