The bodies are believed to be the three swimmers who went missing Monday after going underwater in the Vermillion River.
/Gray News) – Three bodies were pulled out from the Mississippi River in the area where Minnesota officials have been searching for three missing swimmers.
The medical examiner’s office has responded to the scene and will be releasing the names of those located at a later time. It was reported that the three swimmers were inexperienced and swimming without life vests at the time in an area that is 3 feet deep but with a “sharp drop-off to 8 or 9 feet” of depth.
Authorities say the island is only accessible by boat but could not say if there was a boat nearby or if one of the families owned a boat.
