Search For Fisherman Postponed In Boundary Waters

GRAND MARAIS, Minn. (AP) -- The search for a missing Wisconsin man in Minnesota's Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness  was postponed Wednesday.

Cook County sheriff's officials say they expect to resume the search for the 23-year-old Janesville man on Thursday when the weather could be better.

Sonar has helped searchers detect a body in the water near where Ty Sitter went missing last Thursday. Authorities say he left his father and brother at their campsite on Swan Lake to go fishing near Grand Marais. When he didn't return, they found his canoe unoccupied.
