(Franklin County, Ind.) - Indiana Conservation Officers and multiple other agencies continue to search for a missing person who was one of two individuals swept away yesterday by floodwaters along Wolf Creek in Franklin County. 

At noon, county first responders received a report that two people who were staying in a cabin near the creek were missing, and the cabin had been washed away.   

After searching the area, responders found one individual downstream of the cabin’s original location at 1:30 p.m., and the individual was pronounced dead on scene. 

Search efforts continued through the evening but were later suspended due to dangerous conditions. The search for the second individual continues today. 

The names of all involved are being withheld pending family notification.
